That's strange, I would expect Japan to be ahead of the rest here. I would add another question for Robertb: What's our chances to buy the reader online and had it delivered worldwide?
For example, most of the devices are not available in my country, I have found several stores with Cybook, lowest price is 357$, but from the shop with very bad reputation when it comes to reclamations, the next lowest price is 429$. From online shop in another country, you can get it for 285$ and I didn't look very hard, so there are probably even lower prices. Lowest price for Hanlin v3? 376$. I haven't found it abroad, except your web page reads it should be priced around 300$.
