If you're looking to brush up your language skills, then look no further than the Apple Store UK (http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore).
For just £24.01, you could soon be benefiting from "Talk Now French", or why not check out "World Talk German" for just £29. If, however, you'd like to improve your English, then be warned that this comes just a little more expensive:
Reader Howard Gartside spotted this extravagant bit of pricing after searching for "French" on said e-emporium. He notes: "All I can say is I'm glad I want to improve my French not my English." Mais oui. Bonne chance! ®
