WTFOTD: The Wiimote cozy order page thinks Firefox users are all Canuks

Since people are still throwing their Wiimotes across the room, Nintendo set up a page to let you order free Wiimote padded cozies.
Day 1: fill in “US” on first page. Get to final order form and type “p” in state drop-down. Get real surprised when “Prince Edward Island” shows up–I must have selected Canada. Try to go back and enter US only to find that Nintendo remembers that I tried to order but not that something went tragically awry. I have to wait 24 hours to try again.
Day 2: try again being sure to select US. Same result.
Day 3: check HTML to make sure the buttons aren’t switched. Try again to make sure I’m not crazy. Same result.
Day 4: Use Internet Explorer.
I can’t wait for my new Wiimote rubber wrappers.
