I mean, sure, thanks to the internet it's easy to think there are no more borders. But in reality, there are, both legal, cultural, and lingual.

Hmm no offense but is there a Swiss E-Reader with Swiss newspapers ?
I read most books actually in English since I am in the French speaking part of Switzerland and get only very few German books.
So importing the Kindle made indeed some sense. Please dont forget that Amazon is as well advertising the Kindle in Europe. So, wouldnt you expect a fair system then.
I just wonder why they sabotage themselves that way.
It is always the same, companys like to advertise their products with a big tamtam and finally when you look on your local market you just receive bits of the promis.
BTW same story with XBlive but that defintely doesnt belong here
