The thing is; it is just damn expensive to create and maintain physical keyboard layouts for more than one language.
To be fair, a simple QWERTY keyboard that allows for three levels can be used by half of the world population. Maybe not all keys will be in the usual location as they are on desktop keyboards, but you'll have to make compromises anyway to fit the available space. Language-specific keymats for any language that uses or can use the Latin alphabet are not much more than a fashion statement.
