I think MobileRead veterans outside the US are rather underwhelmed. Kindle fans have already worked out how to get one, others have learned to live with, and in many cases love the alternatives.

What I wonder is how the non eInk device owning public are going to react. I think the USD pricing will frighten some off, and the current lack of a nice (for example) UK page showing some of the books available won't help. You can't underestimatetge Amazon brand appeal though - that will be a draw for people looking for presents for those that "have everything"!

What do others think?
