This is probably the most rubbish answer I get from the first hand so
far. Since this is the "developer" version, it "must" include all the
available options on it, so a developer -living anywhere on earth- can
build a program and test upon it.

And for the record, I live in Turkey, officially no Latitude support
here, however with just a simple query string parameter, I can easily
use it.
