Is your kindle email reserved permanently to you?

[Barty]

Say you deregister and sell your kindle, and before you can register a new kindle to the same kindle email, could someone come along and take your email?

I ask b/c I have a rather cool kindle email. It's my first name (3letter long). I'm surprised it was available. It's not a common name but not so rare that I can expect to have it. I have the same email with my ISP, yep, 3letter long, which is why I'll probably never switch ISP.

Your email username is permanently taken as a Kindle address. I know this because every time I either replaced or bought a Kindle it always comes up as my Kindle address then I have to manually change it to what I want.
