That was interesting, Pooh. Thanks. There was something that Bezos said there about there being so many English-speakers in countries with a 'foreign' native tongue. I recall some years ago watching, here in France, an episode of the US TV series Oz, in which one of the characters -- a bright spark -- was watching a game show. The quizmaster had asked which country had the largest English-speaking population. The character immediately said, under his breath, "China". I checked the following day on internet, and he was dead right. Mind you, Kindle's international won't be available in China ... the biggest single English-speaking national market in the world. Hoots. Neil
