Now, I have to wonder. Amazon knows my shipping and billing addresses (which are the same, and are both in France). The email address i receive their mails on ends in .fr. When i've ordered from them, i've used a french credit card from a french bank to pay. given how much information they track about their customers, you'd think they would realise that a kindle is not really an option for me. So what is this ? Willful provocation ?? trying to make me jealous ?? or... are they planning to launch the Kindle in France, and they're trying to generate some reeeeally early buzz ?
I got the same e-mail to my ".co.uk" address. I think they are just sending them out to anyone who's ever bought from "amazon.com", without bothering to filter out the non-US e-mail addresses.

I've just sent them an e-mail saying that I would indeed like to take advantage of their kind e-mail and buy one. I'll let you know what the response is .
