I'm not sure that is actually correct. I believe Amazon only cares what your
current country of residence is. I can flip between Canada and the US and see somewhat different selection of books, publishers and prices. To established a new country of residence, you just change your account details to reflect a valid shipping address. So, you needn't activate the device and get stuck with the original country.
For Kobo, you can surf to
http://www.kobobooks.de/ as starting page and the website defaults to German; you can flip back to English using the drop down menu at the top right corner. This is a work in progress, alas, and lots of English pokes through at the moment. Once you do any search, the left-column menu displays a further language filter. If the title is available in the country your Kobo account is registered to, you should see it listed and be able to purchase it.
