Hello from Australia
Hello All. I has been visiting this forum frequently for two years now and finally make up my mind to register.

This is a great site, I love it!

Well, I'll let it go this time, but don't let such tardiness happen again.

Welcome to username-world, winbear. Nice to see you out of the shadows.

Cheers,
Marc

G'day from Australia....
Wonder if any of you Kindle fans out there have taken your Kindle on holdiays to a Pacific Island for 2 weeks in the sun?? Question: How long in the sun before it overheats and refuses to work? Or, will it be fine? Rather have the space in my luggage for clothes instead of old fashioned books.
Any info would be useful, thanks........

In B&M shops, Sony and Kobo. Some LCDs that I can't remember the names of. iRiver story - not sure whether that's e-ink or lcd. Rus Kogan's got one out as well, but I don't know the name. Kogan's stuff can be a bit dodgy though.

But a lot of Australians are buying online from overseas because it's much cheaper. Much *much* cheaper.
