I was always interested in Kindle. When it became available in Europe, I bought the Kindle with hopes of abundant and good priced books. However, the reality hit me only after I ordered.
1- You can only order this from Amazon.com. Not from Amazon.de, not from Amazon.co.uk. So you have to pay heaps of money for “import tax”. Why can’t a company like Amazon solve this? It is almost a hidden cost.
2- Books are generally more expensive than their paperback versions. Unless you like reading books written gazillion years ago. Why oh why? Isn’t wireless delivery cheaper than printing the book?
3- The titles in Europe are restricted “due to copyright reasons”. So if you want to read new bestsellers, even if you are willing to pay more than the paperback, no luck.
I hope the introduction of another decent competitor like Apple will shake things up.

I do not recommend you to buy this product. Especially of you are living in Europe.
