Norway isn't in EU.

As for me, I don't think I've read a Norwegian book since high school, so my only concern is availability of English-language books. Which, while sometimes problematic for reasons I've outlined before, isn't a big problem.

I went ahead an ordered myself a Kindle. I suspect it will take some time and effort to strip the DRM from my Fictionwise-purchased .pdb ebooks and convert them to .mobi, but I'm up for it.
