Ebook store non exciting in Europe, restriction in UK so what left? Piracy... I have never used this sites but now I am so angry that Sony has cheated in Europe- selling device without possibility to use it

Download the eBooks illegally then... if in fact doing so is even illegal in Holland. Why be upset? The respective authors will survive without the $0.25 - $1.00 per book they would've gotten from your considerably more expensive purchases.
If publishers won't sell, but your fellow human beings will share, it seems to me the situation isn't so bad.
