As i understand things, Toster was never release for PAL (Europe). Why is that ? Since it was so popular in USA I am sure Europe would consume a lot of units too. Was Newtek too small at the time to setup a global network ?

Because of the difference how NTSC and PAL are implemented. A technological problem, PAL was more difficult/expensive option AFAIK.
