I don't understand why Sony likes shooting itself in the foot so much.

I agree. I have a Sony PRS-700 purchased from the US and initially was very pleased when Sony announced they would again be selling e-readers here. They took the decision to locally release a version that supports a different DRM scheme, so you cannot read books from other sources if they use DRM, and you cannot download the books from the Japanese store onto non-Japanese Sony readers.
