Yes, it is European (British) English, as evidenced by the keyboard layout, "English, Nederlands," and the use of "s" instead of "z" in "capitalisation"

I'm not talking about the keys. I'm talking about the string "Dialling Pad" which has a second L in the middle of it.

My poor three-year-old is so confused about how to pronounce the last letter of the Alphabet. "zee" or "zed"?
I usually make both EN_GB and EN_US available on my devices if I have the chance...

I'm starting to think it's about time to split up the English language ...
English
American
Australian
Not sure if Canadian needs to be different... but I think that'd stir up a bigger problem (the whole English vs French thing).
But... really, an "s" in capitalization!? What are they thinking!? You'd think they originated the language or something...

I hope that he's running EN_GB there... because if it's just EN... there's hell to pay.
