Is it still the way that the upper class in Helsinki speak swedish?

Let me tell you this, the Swedish speaking people in Finland -Finlandssvenskar- aren't just one entity. In the south Borgå, Helsingfors, Esbo -Nyland- lives the "proper swedish speakers" as they like to refer themselves as. They consider themselves to be a tad bit "better" then the swedish speakers living on the westcoast -where I live-. They are the "elite" of the minority.

In western Finland (Pohjanmaa/Österbotten) -which is mainly an agricultural place- there are a lot of Finlandssvenskar but since they have the agricultural heritage they are not considered as "refined" as the city dwelling "ruling class" people in the south. Also there are TONS of different -some are really werid-*ss- Swedish dialects here. I could barely understand my girlfriend the first time we spoke to each other -and we're both supposed to be swedish speaking LOL!- Some dialects -like in Närpes/Närpiö- me and even other Swedish speakers FROM Finland have a really hard time understanding.

I could tell you a lot more but I guess I'm waaaay out of topic already

Just recently got an answer from www.webhallen.com
which is one of the top swedish stores for games.

- Hej!

Vi inväntar just nu information från våran leverantör gällande denna,
håll koll på hemsidan så bör den komma upp för bokning inom kort.

Ha en fortsatt trevlig dag.

So they're probably gonna have it up for preorder shortly.

Finnieland status:

Puolenkuunpelit.com just took the collector's edition off the shelf and Verkkokauppa.com also set the status for it as Sold out.

Propably have to order from Sweden then... or what is the situation over there now (for the collector box)?

Webhallen atleast doesn't seem to have it.
