I am not surprised. I have argued that Nook got rid of its card slot and partitioned the way that it did in order to stop people from buying from other book stores. I am sure that BN and Kobo and Sony are all well aware of this.
BN removed the sd card slot and partioned their device to make life harder on those folks.
Sony stopped selling in the US
Kobo has not really made a huge effort in the US, the only advertising I have heard from Kobo is on NPR.
I think that the major retailers have ceded the market to Amazon.
