They did the same thing with many other products, sold there, and only could be gotten via import (or purchase of the few sites that shipped those items to Europe/USA).

I highly doubt a product like that will find it's way in our regular Walmart or so.
I agree we won't be able to buy anything like this at Wal-Mart. Kindle probably can't enforce their patent abroad, but they could certainly block something like this from being imported.
