From what I have read I assumed they were US only devices, constant references to Barnes & Noble leads one to that conclusion.

Nah, they are not sold outside the US or in the case of the Kobo outside the US/Canada/Australia. There is a strong rumour Kobo will open shop in Europe and as they now state prices in Euro for their German books, I think it is liable. But there are the forwarding services. Even bought with a forwarding service the Nook touch is ca. 150€ for me to buy, whereas a Sony 650 is 220€. The Sony is way better IMO and has lots more features, but if it were gone from the face of earth one day, I'd go with either a Nook or a Kobo.
