Thanks, I'll pass it on.

Does that mean we're going to get the books presented in the store in our chosen language, regardless of our geographical location? Will these changes end up on the desktop version and Android versions as well as the website?
I think it means the categories listed in the shop on the device will be in the language being used on the device. At least that seems to be what is happening as I changed languages just now. But, I don't know what happened before.

I can't get my Glo to show any books in the categories I tried, whereas the same categories on my Android Kobo on my phone shows a variety of titles.
Ouch. I can confirm that it is displaying correctly here in a few different languages. Maybe it is related to the country you have your account registered in.

It always ticked me off royally that I can't access any English books without using search while temporarily residing in a non-English speaking country (and being forced book titles upon me in the local language). Stupid IP link to languages without proper alternatives is in my eyes discrimination against expatriates/travellers.

Currently it's a mix of mainly localised titles and a few English ones (my chosen language obviously).
Being stuck down-under, I don't get the language problem. But, I keep getting the "not available internationally". But, changing my billing address to another country seems to side step this.
