I have read some comments that the European e-book readers market potential is not as big compared to the US. Is that really so? Maybe if the offer would be the same and prices comparable then we could judge the size of the market.

Of course it's not as big... First, I'm not sure how many literate people Europe has and how many literate people the US, but at least in the US, it's primarily all in one language. In Europe, the amount of people available are also splintered over the various languages and countries, all with different rules and regulations...
And I doubt we'll get the last year's models, but the prices will be much higher (as they always are, I'd be very surprised if they weren't this time).
