W.H. Smith will sell Cybooks in France starting next month
Details from ActuaLitté (thanks to Nicholas Gary). Google translation here. Cybooks—at least some and maybe all—will come preloaded with French and English classics.
A bare package will go for 350€; a deluxe one, for 450€—with a 2G SD card, a USB charger, a headphone and other trimmings.

Interesting (even if there are not a lot of WH Smith in France, I know only one).
There’s also Orange and SFR (the two biggest mobile phone operator in France) who are beta-testing their ebook reader solution:
