I'm not sure if I'd call it personalization, but I've been to sites that check the browser language preferences via the HTTP header and serve different things based on that (usually just serving in the correct language, but between language preferences and IP, you can make a guess as to where the user is located.)
Mozilla checks your language and OS and offers the correct version of Firefox for download above the fold on their page (with a link to get to additional versions of the software). Emusic does something similar to Amazon, in that they'll make some music recommendations based on things you've looked at before, even if you're not currently logged in (I assume this is tracked with cookies, but I haven't dug very deeply). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
