The KF probably does not SHIP with advertising installed. That gets loaded after you register it, based on your location. I did not say that all kindles were USABLE without registering. So, technically speaking, although not accurate, I was not necessarily incorrect. People often make ASSUMPTIONS that I did not imply, when they challenge my posts. Lack of accuracy (often used for brevity when I use my onscreen keyboard) does not imply falsehood.
The English language can often be all to easily misinterpreted when using bevity, especially when crossing cultural or technical boundaries. Unfortunately, I browse MobileRead more often on my Nexus 7 these days, and the onscreen keyboard encourages brevity. So misunderstandings of my intent may be even more common in the future.  |
Registration happens before shipment. You will see your KF HD serial number on your account page as soon as its shipped and before you receive it.
Plus, its now official:
"Amazon Kindle HD Will Allow Users To Opt-Out Of “Special Offers” For $15."
Here is the link:

I purchased the Kindle Paperwhite without the Special Offers and I will now opt out for my Kindle Fire HD.
