Anthem is in the public domain anyway. Why bother with going through the rigmarole of a purchase when you can easily download it for free from Feedbooks?

And? There are many, many examples of this. Is it more fair than the fact that many books/movies/software/hardware/whatever is only sold in the USA and those of us who live somewhere else can't buy them at all, except for second hand? Would it be more fair if the coupon got released in 17 hours pacific time, which is 01-03 hours in Europe? Maybe it should be published at 10 pacific, but what about Japanese or Australians then?

From the manuals it's quite certain that PRS-300 and PRS-600 will be released in UK.

You shouldn't complain... You had the opportunity to buy the Sony 505. Which we never got. The first to be released here (according to those manuals) are the 300 and 600...

Hey Guys!
I didn't mean to cause problems for folks outside the US! I try to think globally...believe me the team that works with CRead is all over the place! To be honest there have been less than 100 redemptions so far so the code should work. If it doesn't, then reply on this board. The bad news is that currently we are updating the site so no one can do anything. But the good news is once we come out of hibernation, Mobipocket will no longer be our only major format. |
