Kindle Paperwhite has international shipping!
This might be great news for us all living in "Third World" - i.e. countries without their own Kindle Store. Amazon has just introduced Paperwhite for international shipping! There are two new product pages:
PW WIFI: http://amzn.to/pw-int-wifi ($139 + shipping + import fees deposit; $196 in case of Poland) PW 3G: http://amzn.to/pw-int-3g ($199 + shipping + import fees deposit; $280) I almost instantly ordered 3G though the price is completely weird... |

Yay, finally!
I was lucky enough to get it last year from friend in USA, but today I'm happy for other international users |

you know you can use Freight Forwarders... like Hop Shop Go?
I got mine from US Amazon store, had it shipped to US address (for free) and then had it shipped to Australia for another $29... |

What!? This is amazing! Now I need to consider replacing my new K4B.
Edit : Bought it. The one-day shipping was 3.99$ after I subscribed to the free Prime trial, which is pretty damn good. At least I don't have to buy a new sleeve. Now, onto selling my two months old K4B! Last edited by HYPE; 01-23-2013 at 11:38 PM. |

Can't believe I missed this. I bought mine via a Freight Forwarder to Australia but it cost me dearly.
Got the Dick Smith Catalog today and saw them advertised to be available in stores on the 12th February. Just in time for Valentines Day no doubt. No mention of price though. |

Just like with the Touch, this happens a couple of weeks after I resort to grey importing at additional cost .
