Almost Another Canadian Heritage Moment
As many of you know (or don’t, whatever), the Canadian Dollar has past parity with Greenback and is now sitting around $1.07 USD. So, you’d think, after many years of having to pay more than our American cousins, we’d be able to get a break because of the “strength of our dollar” (read: weakness of the US dollar).
Just when I thought I would have to buy the iPod Touch State-side I caught this:
That’s right. It’s Apple Canada’s site, both by the address and the Page Title. But, when I grabbed my credit card to go and get my new fancy gadget on this momentous occasion, this is what I found.
No joy. That’s right, whoever maintains the Canada site was either too tired, too lazy, or two ignorant to change 3 characters of text with that fancy font that Apple uses. I shouldn’t be ragging on just Apple. It’s the consumer electronics industry as a whole. But I wants an iPod Touch and I wants it now. But that ain’t gonna happen.
