whatever for them. if you dont have broadband, you should not be buying a ps3. if your country does not have broadband, then you should have known this from the start. anything less than broadband is inferior.

You can't blame Sony for rushing the system. Its pure economics...rich country..first to have the system...poor country..too fuking bad..boo hoo. You can't expect sony to put a language on the store when only 25 people in that country can afford the PS3 in the first place...I have a solution...learn a new language

Actually it won't do you any good learning a new language just to get the PSS because it wouldn't be available to you anyway due to the location of your PS3.

Are you suggesting we all learn Mandarin Chinese?
Because according to TIME's Almanac in 2001 here are the top 5 languages as of then:
1. Mandarin Chinese: 885 million
2. Spanish: 332 million
3. English: 322 million
4. Bengali: 189 million
5. Hindi: 182 million
:p
I wonder if members of a nation without access could sue Sony for false advertisement. ;)

those numbers are misleading, considering a majority of the people speaking those launguages are in one area, not spread out. but i dont think china has the ps3 do they? they are communist. i see no blips of ps3's in china on the folding at home app.

Despite the "blame the user" rhetoric, lets look at fact MS had 5 years to polish the back bone of LIVE then add another 2 since the 360.
Sonys online was weak to start with then they were rushing the past 3 years to polish up the store and backbone at the same time,give it a bit of time Sonys online should come up like roses.
Much like the rest of the PS3 is horse sht now but in time a garden of ripe games and value will hopeful grow from it,all sony has to do is remember to water it and keep the dog poo out....

I live in Malta and have got the same problem.
We speak English as our second language here so not giving us access to the UK store is pretty darn stupid!
