Thanks for that! I've just checked the same link and it's still saying "this title is not currently available to purchase". I can only conclude that this is some form of IP address check, or similar, which is intended to prevent people in certain markets from buying the book at this point, probably because it will be made available there by a local publisher later (e.g. the UK, where I live).

Thing is, it's not been made clear when it will be released on Kindle in the UK; if we're talking a matter of days, then I can wait (much as I don't want to!). If we're talking months, though, then I'd rather buy it now; I have a holiday coming up and would very much like it to read on the plane (I'm flying to Australia and so will have plenty of time!).

I guess the next step is to change my Kindle store to the US, and then try accessing the book's Kindle page using a US (or Peruvian!) proxy, and see if that works.
