Cheapest possible Kindle?
Comments
-
Sorry this many not be the most helpful post for you but if you do know anyone going to the US they are much cheaper there if they would be willing to bring one home for you.How about shopping around the different amazon stores to find the cheapest. The new £89 kindle on amazon UK is only €99 on amazon.de (the german site) which equates to roughly £79 - a ten quid saving!!
Does anyone know if this would actually work??
I remember eagerly awaiting the release of the first Kindle here in the UK and it was significantly delayed because they couldn't get the whispernet system to work with European communications.
It was my belief that the US kindle uses a completely different method of downloading to the European one and therefore wouldn't work in the UK.
Don't know if a German one is any different to a UK one tho.
Anyone in the know?You had me at your proper use of "you're".0 -
I would be interested in knowing about the US version as a friend is going in a few weeks.
From what I can read, you get some adverts on it.0
