Kobo maybe isn't available in India and that's a lot of people.
USA is less than 6% of the world population.
Add a note or country code.

Thanks for the input guys! Will add Tolino to the main table and add a label.
I think the right move is to use the 'Availability' column, which currently only shows whether it's either available or discontinued, and add an additional label to that to indicate regional availability.
For brands that are only available in a few regions, I'll make it this say 'Regional' instead of the normal 'Available', followed by the 2-letter country codes (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2) to show which countries they're (mostly) available in (on the next line).
So for Tolino (Germany, Switzerland, Austria), I'll add: DE/CH/AT.
I'll make sure this cell shows up with a yellow background to make it easier to distinguish the difference in availability.
This change also allows me to add some other brands and models that I've held off on before, like the Bookeen Notea (France - FR), Readmoo (Taiwan - TW), and some Chinese models that aren't generally sold internationally (for instance through AliExpress).
Let me know if I'm missing some more country/region specific brands you'd like to see added, and I'll see what I can do!
It will be a while before I can implement all of this though! Especially seeing it'll be a pretty big update and I'm quite busy at the moment.
PS: In the meantime I've added two new models to the table. Firstly, the PocketBook Verse Pro Color, as that is now being sold on Amazon - even though it's still listed as 'Coming soon' on Pocketbook's site. And secondly, the Onyx Boox Go 6, which is newly released today!
