Norway isn't the biggest country out there. With only 4.5 million people we are a small market for Apple. But I find it strange that Apple are able to sell a program like Pages in Norway without a Norwegian spell checker, without a Norwegian dictionary. Pages do not support CocoAspell, so as a word processor Pages are totally useless for me. What really pisses me off is that Pages are advertised as a word processor on the Norwegian Apple Store - in Norwegian - but not mentioning a word about not supporting this language. Even if we are a small market this is not the way to go to expand. Or to keep customers.

Hello Claus,I agree with you that Apple should include more languages like Finnish in Pages.
Have you posted your request (for inclusion of Finnish in Pages) at the Apple
Feedback webpage? It is located at:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html
Good luck, I hope Apple satisfies your need.

I agree, Pages is pretty useless. Not only doesn't it know Norwegian, it doesn't know how to do Math.;-( Don't know why Apple even bothered with it.Reply to This
