Yes, that is probably true once they stopped making local wireless variants. I have seen some differences in serial number ranges, but those are probably just inventory management issues.
Anyway, I agree this seems to be a account/back-end issue. Someone adventurous with a UK Kindle PW2 5.4.2, register it with an Amazon.com account and try.
