Sometimes living in the uk sucks!

ooooh this may get me to break down and buy a kindle...this is awesome!

Sorry you can't get it there.
 
Why won't they ship them overseas? It is because of publishing rights/access? I don't understand that.
 
They won't be launched in Australia either, they didn't even launch the original fire here.

From what I have read and understand, I believe we can't get them here because Amazon don't have access to our Australian content like magazines, newspapers, music etc. So if they were to release it they could potentially have a lot of disappointed customers because we couldn't get our local items on it and only US products. We have access to all of this via other tablets ie ipad so it would make it harder for kindle to compete in the Australian market.
 
i like the white background! although i do love the original kindle with the neutral background - it reminds me of a printed book.

stinks that you can't get it there. :(
 
I bought the Nook with Glowlight that is just like this and I love it SO much! I bought the original Nook and liked it, but soon after that I got an iPhone and switched to reading on that because it was so much easier to navigate and I could read at night. The new Nook is perfect and doesn't strain my eyes like my iPhone was starting to.
 
ooh i love that! I have the regular wifi kindle and have been looking at the touch and fire. But as I only want it for reading I have been happy as is. But this would make me consider an upgrade. The light in itself would make me buy!
Shame I'm in oz.
