Replace usage of expression "High Street"

[edit]

First, thanks to user martinvl for uploading this image. My concern is with the caption; as it stands, the caption was more confusing for me, a non-British user. Maybe "High Street" is a common expression in the UK, but it is not elsewhere as far as I know.

After some research, I determined that the uploader probably meant to say something like "devices commonly available in the UK" or "devices purchased at regular stores in the UK".

since I don't fully understand the uploader's intent, I won't change it myself, but bring it up here. Thanks martinvl or someone else for replacing with a more globally understandable version. GvV (talk) 20:13, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
