I have a US Kindle Touch, but I'm in the UK

I know that the UK Kindle Touch is coming soon and hope that when it does arrive I will be able to access the UK Kindle store....

I have the ad-enabled Kindle, but am thinking about removing the ads - I wonder if this will be possible? I tried to remove the ads but it didn't work, I think because I'm based in the UK and have a UK address/credit card.

Do you think I will be able to remove the adverts when the Kindle Touch arrives in the UK?

Thanks

I doubt it; ad-supported Kindles are only sold in the US, hence ad removal is only available in the US. I have a US-bought ad-supported Touch myself, although personally I like the ads.

If it is that important to you, you can try one of two things.

1.)Use your UK credit card with a US address. Just find a real address from the internet, often they don't do an address check.

2.)If the above fails, you can get a USunlocked card. Kind of overkill just to remove the ads, if you ask me though. It might come in handy for other US purchases, though.
