Hello hioniam. I can read greek pdfs on my 600 just fine. They probably have to have the font embedded, but up to now I haven't had any problems.
You can't buy books from the sony store (that's only for USA I think), but you can try european stores like waterstones, whsmith, foyles, booksonboard uk and any other that sells epub.
I am from Greece but I spend most of my time in the UK lately, so I bought mine from waterstones (for 250 pounds plus 20 pounds gift card). I think the prices don't vary more than a few tens of pounds (or euros) at the moment, as it's a relatively new product. You might want to try your luck on ebay.
