@Just_Ben, But wasn't this always the case with technology manufactured in asia and yet always sold at a higher rate in eu? It's generally said that that's because of the higher tax rates in EU but after studying some sales numbers my opinion was that it's because it was a considered a less relevant market than Japan/US so companies didn't compete in terms of prices in EU just like they were satisfied with late launches... wondering if this will change in the future. Will for example MS ever consider EU as a place to conquer like it did in Japan with lower pricing/high advertising/specialized products?
