I would doubt that Sony plans to sell the 900 in Europe (or at least in Germany). It took Amazon years to get contracts with local carriers and therefore making one of the Kindles main features work here. I cannot see that Sony would have an easier job getting this done.
I think the 3G-connection is one of the 900s main features over the 600. I don't think that Sony will jump through loops just to get 3G working here. And how would they advertise the 900 if it doesn't bring 3G to the table? Something like "you pay additional features you cannot use", or "its main advantage is a slightly larger display so you don't have to do as many page turns as on the 600"?
Sorry, I'm being sarcastic here. No offense to anyone. I just wonder why companies don't sell stuff here with maybe less functionality and let people decide what to buy. I would probably have bought the 900, but I cannot get it in store. Same for the pricing of Irex. The 3G version in the US is cheaper than the non 3G in Europe. How obvious.
