I'd prefer free shipping but that's not the point.
Amazon has free shipping on a regional basis. If you buy through amazon.com, it's free shipping within the US. If you buy through amazon.ca, it's free shipping within Canada. Repeat for amazon co.uk, .de, .jp etc.
The Kindle is ONLY sold through the US division and hence shipping rules apply equally. The next step is to get Amazon to start selling the Kindle regionally -- including content through amazon.ca. (Currently all content must be bought on the US site only.)
