That's very odd. I ordered a Kindle DX graphite last week to be shipped to the UK. The payment has been taken and it's apparently being shipped tomorrow. But I see now that only white is available for UK and Portugal. There are messages about getting into the queue which weren't there before so maybe it's just a temporary supply problem.

Keep looking; they might make them available internationally again soon.

Your ordered Graphite Kindle is the global wireless edition or the US one?

I guess they're doing the same as Apple: first stocks for US residents only, and when suply meets demand at "home", sell it internationally.

Sony did drop the price.

600 = $169.99
300 = $149.99
900 = $299.99


So there you go.

We expect a nice side-by-side pic alongside your old one so we can see the contrast difference.

Awesome! Make sure to take a picture from far enough so the lighting angle will be uniform.

Why do you want WiFi in a bookreader?

I live in Europe and I could pre-order the graphite version. So I assume it is already internationally available.

Yes, the ability to buy one is back now; it wasn't available yesterday.
