Amazon Kindle Coming to Europe
Oct 07, 2009 07:10 filed in: Technology | Books
There is a new Kindle
on the block! And this one can be ordered and used in Europe including downloading of books over "whispernet". Finaly a Kindle for the rest of the World. Now it's time for them to get publishers to put more books into Kindle format.
It's in pre-order and will ship on October 19th. I hope the DX is not to far behind!
