One thing Amazon seemed to help with when they released in the US was getting more books out quicker. A lot of those books were released not only for the Kindle, but the Sony and through places like BoB and FW. So them releasing the K internationally could end up being a good thing for ebook users regardless of what device they use.

where it is good or not really depends on the 'geographical restriction' issue for books - and that is deemed to be down to the publishers .... though i can see the kindle might become a driver to kick the publishers into the 21stC !
