Hi guys,

I have been reading regarding the Kindle 3 and its issues outside the US for awhile now, on this forum.

However, I still have a few doubts that I need to clear before I purchase the kindle.

I am currently located in China and I will be able to get my hands on a US Kindle3. I did some research on the Amazon Kindle Books that I intend to buy and many of those books are only available on the US site.

The link from michaelyung sites suggests a method to purchase books from the US Kindle site without being physically located in the US.

I would like to know if the method this works, by using a US VPN and changing the address in "Manage your Kindle" to a US address. Also, I read that there is also another "Gift Card" method that some members used with success, is that also still working?

Are there any other known methods that are working right now?

Please kindly point me in the right direction!
