In France that is Fnac (I think?)
In Belguim we have Dutch and French (and German, but they also sell in Germany...).
So logical conclusion = bol.com for the dutch-speaking part and Fnac for the French-speaking part.
+ Both companies are sending to/ operating in Belguim.

But no, Sony want one exclusive partner for Belguim.
Must have a very different policy in England then. I've seen them advertised in play.com, WH Smith, Amazon, Eclipse Computers, Borders.. All unrelated retailers. Perhaps Sony just don't have an importer or they are not as keen on accessing non English speaking markets.
