Anyway, amazon seams to have zero plan for France at the moment.

Since they are not allowed to discount books, I'm not sure that they would have plans for France.

the reverse is also true. By the time amazon decides to move in France, people might have some ePub library already, and refuse to switch over.
How do to sell mobi book in France, when 99% having e-readers uses e-readers that don't reads mobi ?

The e-book market in France is currently all but nonexistent. 1% of 0 is still 0.

For now, I don't had much problem with Amazon. As long as they don't make an exclusivity deal on a book I really want to read, i don't give a damm about them selling ePub or not.  .
I'm just scared of what they could do. I don't want an e-reading world, with only one reader, and only one shop... That would sucks !
Oh, and I don't want to be stuck with the technically inferior mobi.

You won't be stuck with one shop, as you can buy mobi in lots of places. I'm less sure of one reader.
