The Nook is not available outside the U.S. but the Kobo is (it is a Canadian company, and is available in Canada. I believe that it will be going international). The Kobo has even recently launched a German ebook store I believe.

Yes, I paid $129 for mine and recently paid $105 for one as a gift. Both devices were new and bought online from BH Video and Borders, respectively. The 7-inch 950 has often sold for $200 (I am still itching to pick one up, but I haven't been to the U.S. recently!)
In all honesty, I do believe that the Sony devices are worth a premium price, however. I paid $300 for my first Sony reader and never regretted a penny.
