The real huge problem with geographic restrictions is that the rights holders/distributors in other countries aren't even selling ebooks they have the rights to.

Speaking from my experience for South Africe there is not ONE ebook store that caters to the country and none of the publishers offer ebooks (at least none that I could track down).
Yep, that's the way it is, otherwise there would be no problem and I could just buy them here in holland, but most ebooks are not sold here.
