"German" is a language, not a country, so it doesn't have a currency.
If you use Locale.GERMANY then it works. Also, in the Locale
constructor you have to specify the language and country separately,
so new Locale("nl", "NL") will also work.
I noticed that when I set the locale to "German" on the Android
emulator and on my UK G1, the Locale.getDefault() Locale did not have
a country, and so no currency was available. It seems to me that there
should be "German (Germany)", "German (Austria)" etc. Is this an
oversight, or a deliberate design choice?
