And concerning the discussion: I think what one is trying to say that books with geo restrictions are always restricted (which is true) while the other was actually pointing out that geo restrictions don't matter so much for a format like ePub that is more universal, because there is more likely to be a store that will carry the title you're looking for anywhere in the world, regardless of device (like, you cannot buy from B&N in UK but you will just simply the same book available from Waterstone), something which is not possible on the Kindle platform (and btw. also not in the Appleverse)...

If you're going to suggest that someone break the rules to get around geo restrictions, then why not also suggest they simply strip DRM, then they can read any book from any of those sources on the Kindle too. If you're going to ignore officially supported restrictions, then it's simply incorrect to say it's not possible on the Kindle.
Oh wait, I forgot my
