There's a very simple answer for that one. Sony wants to tie the reader to their online store (Kind of like Apple iTunes/iPod). They only have negotiated rights to sell eBooks from their store for the USA. Since they're only allowed to sell books in the USA, and they don't want to sell readers to anyone who can't buy their books, they therefore don't sell the reader in other markets.
Simple, right?
