In a lot of retail areas (Video Games are good example) Europe is treated as a single region, rather than releasing products on a country by country basis. Amazon only has separate stores for UK, France and Germany, however when they launch the Kindle they will probably be launching it as a Europe-wide device.

Kindles will need to work across Europe, otherwise they will be selling a device that's worthless to half the market.
