No, I'd say it's more like buying a Borders gift card in the USA and expecting it to work at Borders in the UK.

I say this because Sony own Waterstones' stock of readers and are only using Waterstones as a well-placed store front and part of that agreement means that there is no Sony online store in the UK, buyers MUST use the Waterstones online store to purchse from Sony so I rekon they should honour the Sony gift cards.

And, by the way, I'd expect a Borders US gift card to work in the UK although as far as I know it isn't possible.

Cheers,
Terry.
