I think that the article is geared towards our brothers on the other side of the pond since all the books the author talks about, Dan Brown, Stephen King, Sarah Palin, are available on the Kindle here in the US.
I do understand though. I would be rather upset if I was always getting dinged because of where I lived. Hell, I was angry the first time I ran into a book that i could not get because I lived in the US! I didnt even want to read it in all reality but the fact that I could not read it, even if I wanted to, pissed me off.

It sure is a shame that we cant all me one big happy planet.
