Sony Germany has a "Readers Club" only, which promotes ebooks but links to the sites of cooperating bookshops. By doing so they avoid being seen as direct competition by the booksellers. Therefore you can buy Sony readers in many German bookshops.
If the prices at pixmania are indicative for prices in France then they are pretty steep. Can't you buy your ebook reader from Germany or the UK (and this includes the Kindle)? No hassle with import duties within the EU.
