Some people on eBay found an oportunity in this and are selling new nooks for 180 USD + shipping, still a reasonable price. So far I have not found any other way to get it to Europe, maybe I could ask friend's US relatives to buy for me and send it...
You can use an USA mail forwarding address from Borderlinx or USunlocked to order to Nook. Use the mail forwarding address as shipping and billing addres of your B&N account. Use a VPN like Hotspot Shield (free) or AlwaysVPN ($8,50) to get an USA IP-address.
This way you can order the Nook, and buy books from B&N, from outside the USA.

Take a look at the Nook forum here at Mobileread. You will find a lot of international Nook users there.
