International Keyboard Amharic is not there

I am trying to get a keyboard for an ethiopian language called amharic. I have seen this people use it. They told me got it from Cydia. It is called iamharic. Why is apple so racist and do not put this software on itune for IP4 Version 4.1 (8b117). Why a technical advancement is only classified to white countries or white people. why

iPhone 4, iOS 4.1, (8B117) MFW02.10.04

"The Oxford English Dictionary defines racism as the "belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races" and the expression of such prejudice"

Looking briefly at the list of countries within which iTunes operates, and therefore has the support of Apple, I note that the white countries and white people seem to include India, Kenya, Madagascar, Uganda.... and make sure you stay clear of China - heck of a lot of people there you might consider as "non-white"


Racism cuts both ways.....

There are a couple apps which let you make custom keyboards which you might want to check out: Unicode Map and UniKey.


To ask Apple to add Amharic to the list of 3 dozen or so keyboards alreadly provided, go here:
