Seems we won’t be getting iPhoto printing and books down under according to a report from an Apple reseller who has spoken with Apple Australia.
Straight from the horses mouth (by way of an authorised reseller contact of ours), it seems that Australia will NOT be getting iPhoto photo and book printing in the near future, despite Steve Jobs saying that Apple was making it available worldwide.
No reason was given for the decision, we’re trying to get more details, but needless to say we sure are disappointed. I guess we are but a tiny percentage of Apple’s market. The sooner we decide to live with that the less we’ll get depressed I suppose.
