Anyway can anyone tell me how you can see if there are geographic restrictions on books at BooksOnBoard or Diesel? I checked a few books that have GR on Fictionwise, but couldn't see any on the other stores. Am I blind or did I just not look in the right place?
I have also been looking into if there are any possibilties of getting an american debit or credit card, but it looks difficult.

Your best choices are Amazon (you can still get around the restrictions but be careful not to buy Topaz books) and Epub (Sony will switch to EPub at the end of this year, too). Both involve De-DRMing. Fictionwise seems to be quite expensive, anyway.
