I wonder whether Sprint roaming is indeed US-only -- there's CDMA in some other places. In any case, one can buy on Amazon's website and then choose a Kindle to deliver to, at a later date.
Basically, they can't really enforce "base country" on a person who visits another country. If this is a bug, let it be -- but in all cases, it will lead to the demise of the geo-rights for ebooks.
No more "Superb! Our favourite! -- London Times" blurbs for the US editions test-driven in the UK first.
