I'm thinking it will be cheaper for me to buy a U.S. Kindle 3 and have it shipped to my U.S. address and just bring it back with me. When I entered everything on the international page just to see, the total was over $200, which included around $25 in international shipping fees and nearly $35 in import deposit fees. If I have it shipped to my U.S. address, where I'll be next month, I'll pay just $139 (assuming I go with Free Super Saver Shipping). I think the U.S. one is the cheapest, I just don't want to be screwed over and not be able to access certain books from over here.
I would buy it in the US, so you can have all the books + games, some of them for free, that we (Netherlands) aren't allowed to purchase because of the geo-restrictions.
