I have a Kindle 2 from some days and... none other device can be compared with it. Speed loading books, speed turning pages (like a PDA), search engine (search entire library, search into a book, search into dictionary). Then only bad thing is screen contrast, that can be solved applying font patch (and you have at least 17 different fonts to select -Georgia 2 makes the difference).

I'm from Spain, and the only thing I cannot do with my K2 is connect internet and direct download from Whispernet. I can read no-drm books and I can purchase and read Amazon DRMed books as I were in USA.

Search in Google for "purchase kindle outside usa" and you will find how. I've purchased a DX and I'm in way to sell my practically new DR (purchased in 2009 Feb).
