Nexus 7 tablet is $50 more in Australia then the US
The Nexus 7 tablet is $50 more expensive in Australia even though the Aussie dollar is almost the same as the US dollar. What's going on there?

I would have thought Google would be above the regional price discrimination that regularly occurs in Australia.
