The only significant difference I can see between the US and European market that might cause this is Amazon's dominance...
The US market had those alternative eInk devices (Pocketbook, Onyx, Cybook) and there apparently wasn't enough interest for the places selling them to continue doing so. Anyhow they are available in the US, you just have to order them from Europe. As I'm sure a lot of people in Europe who may be interested in such a device have to order one.
