Unsurprising. With the flare up over prism in the EU (particular Germany) specifically over privacy and corporate safe harbour concerns, I very much doubt the possible legislative headache was looking like an attractive corner to fight if it cropped up to bite them. Coupled with being an easy target for negative public perception and sensationalist tabloiding, this particular 180 was a decidedly shrewd manoeuvre ahead of launch.
On a personal level, it was one of my major deal breakers and has made it likely that I'll now pick one up mid to later in the gen. Once the price is down and the library is fully fleshed out.
Overall, good news and a positive outlook for more effective competition going forward.
