And to further complete my list,
US, Canada, Australia and China have the Beta version. ("most" advanced)
Spain, UK, India, France, Germany and Italy have the Alfa version. ("least" advanced)
Rest of the world has nothing or they have to change the region to get a version with all the additional cons.
What's really bugged me is that MS hasn't even considered it worth their time to tell us what the differences between alpha and beta Cortana are.
As a result, anyone reading a blog about Cortana outside the U.S. has no idea if that information applies to them or not. Finding out is all trial and error.
Just as bad, it's very hard to get excited over going from alpha to beta Cortana, because nobody knows what the differences are.
People outside the U.S. are thinking either they'll never get Cortana, or they've realized it doesn't do half the things for them they've read about online. Few can imagine why other than "they don't care about us". That impression sticks!
It's a shame that one of MS' favorite services, and one they are rightfully proud of, is being paraded only in front of U.S. audiences. From everyone else's point of view, Cortana is publicly being dragged through the mud.
What a great way to waste a marketing tool/opportunity.
