Couldn't find anythng about this on the web...
I'm wondering if anyone knows/thinks its a good/bad idea to launch English apps in a foreign market. For example, my app is programmed in English, and also uses the dollar sign, which not all countries use, obviously. My developer says that we should wait and localize the app before we launch in countries that are not english and/or do not use the $ sign. My argument is that some users in those countries may not be from there, but have iTunes accounts from those countries, and would like to get the app.
What do you think is the better idea? Launch it everywhere anyway, or wait to localize it?
