And yes, the Nook and Kobo touches are doing the same thing as the 650. The average user doesn't care that Sony was doing it a year before the othes. The average user cares that a comprable 6 inch screen Sony device is $80 more expensive then the Kobo or the Nook.

Order online? yeah right... Sony and Kobo readers are available now, no need to order online and WAIT [hope] for it to arrive safely.
And as far as I'm aware Amazon does NOT accept orders directly for the Kindle from NZ. You have to go through a third party or 'agent' who arranges your order, and takes their cut.
As to price if that is the ONLY factor then sure buy the cheapest you can.
