Is there a Europe server? Or are there at least plans for it if it doesn't exist?

No, there are no European server locations (nor any other country than the United States).  Linden Lab has two server locations.  One is in San Francisco, CA and the other is in Dallas, TX.  Both those server locations serve the entire world.

It's not just the server location.  You can't compare a game like Battlefield 3 with SL.  The technologies used to get the world's content to your computer are very different.  SL will always be more laggy than a game whose content is created by the game developers instead of the users.

Well i worked for Cisco a long time ago, but the only way to improve speed in bits/second and a lower ping, would be hops in between of course each hop is a log in server with a grid in sync with all other grids but that would cost a lot of money, we are thinking about global over the whole world hops and that would be a lot . Not to mention the simulators, but that could be solved with direct links to the US.
