Nexus 7 tablet is $50 more in Australia then the US

The Nexus 7 tablet is $50 more expensive in Australia even though the Aussie dollar is almost the same as the US dollar. What's going on there?

* Go to the nexus 7 google page http://www.google.com/nexus/#/7

* See the text "The new $199 tablet from Google"

* Click "Buy Now"

* Prepare to be disappointed.

I would have thought Google would be above the regional price discrimination that regularly occurs in Australia.
