Sometimes coming to this website feels like being in a time loop. We've had this discussion already.
Sonys are sold worldwide and they have agreements with shops in the respecitve languages all over the world. Kindle is English and since two weeks has a German kindle shop. Thats it.
So with a Sony you
- pay a premium price for a device you can shop with in whichever shop you like
- in whichever language you read
The typical user is not adept to circumvent the DRM scheme or the georestrictions that come with the Kindle. So either an international Kindle buyer does their reading in English or they get a device that is flexible in the where-to-buy-a-book and the which-language-to-buy-the-book-in.
