Can't see this having impact but I totally agree.

Sony have been dreadful, truly disgraceful in their exploitation of Irish customers by selling them a fabulous item but unuseable. The apps that made me want the item don't work over 6 months after purchase, it's unbelieveable. I do understand about the individual licensing requirements of each country but if we were good enough to take money from we are good enough to provide services to, often paid services.

Just as an aside my tablet was a gift from my non techie Mother who went to the ends of the earth making calls, getting the 32gb model and being really pleased with herself for having found something special for me. I dread it when she asks if the apps are available yet. She may not know what they are but she knows they're not there and is very disappointed.

Disappointment is the key word when it comes to the Sony Tablet S in Ireland.

I think that sony should have made every effort to bring those features to more regions. although the psstore atm is pretty rubbish tbh, 15 overpriced ps1 games is all it is but I suspect that their waiting for ics before making improvements or adding regions.

They didn't forget Ireland when they wanted revenue from the sale of the hardware.

I totallty agree with the sentiment of this thread.

Reader Store......hasn't happened,

Video Unlimited......hasn't happened,

PS Store............Hasn't happened.

In fact I am so disillusioned with Sony after this debacle ( and false advertising in my opinion) that for the first time in history I am not upgrading my mobile phone with a Sony model. HTC here I come.

I also agree with all the above. I will be changing my Xperia ARC to a HTC model and my Tablet S to an iPad.

Just out of curiosity, can you get the google video store?

I've got the Tablet S and Sony reader and have never had problems getting books, videos or anything. I don't really understand the need for a dedicated service.

No I think the other poster is Chakotae. Such as the fact this thread is about Irish users not having any proper services and their country of residence is listed as the UK. ICS hasn't made a shred of difference, still nothing. I am starting to hate Sony and I didn't think it was possible to hate a faceless, soulless coroporation.

I live in England, which means we get Sonys various stores and Google as well.

I visited Ireland back in April for a holiday and noticed that video download wasn't available on the Google store. So it seems that geographical issues extend further than just Sony.

If you were to buy another tablet you may find yourself the same boat. Your only option would have been to root your device, which if you've upgraded to ICS is not currently possible.

Basic licensing rights that could be very easily sorted out if they could be bothered. A small market isn't worth anything to them except sales for hardware. I know the ps store is rubbish but why the hell is that not available here Sony?
