Maybe they're sticking us with the bill for the costs involved in developing a bilingual interface, not to mention manuals, packaging, marketing related materials, etc.
And since Canada has a relatively small population and less units are expected to be sold here, does that result in a higher cost per unit?
In the countries where the readers are currently sold, is the user interface available in more than one language?
