I guess there won't be a Spain-specific Kindle store because Amazon don't have a presence in Spain.

That said, Amazon do have a presence in France and Germany, and as far as I can see, there hasn't been a Kindle store announced for those countries, which seems odd.

Regarding taxes. You pay them anyway. There's no import duty on Kindle in the EU (or, if there is, it's pretty small). But you do pay VAT. If you buy the Kindle within the EU, the VAT will be included in the price. If you buy from the US, it will be charged at the point of import.
