kindle thread in singapore forums is quite active... you need very roundabout/detour ways to get ur hands on a kindle and buy kindle books but it can be done , regardless of amazon not selling to us haha...

getting nook and buying from b&n is also same diffculty as amazon when you are in singapore.

so i guess u are better off with readers that support buying from 3rd party stores like smash words / baen /fictionwise / ebook.com. plus singapore library has overdrive that lends free ebooks... so its better to get a reader that can support DRM-epub or DRM pdfs
