Better to be vague or just say, "We'll email preorders and update this page when a firm date is set for you to receive your new Kindle." I'm not gonna die if I can't have it right away....I can always read on my computer or my old Sony Reader. Or, hey, a real book with pages. |

Yes, I've pre-ordered one. I have a K2. My husband got my K1. I have several covers and a new skin and it's not enough different to justify my getting the new one. But it seemed like a good time to replace the K1.

Yes, I've pre-ordered one. I have been wanting a Kindle for ages and was so pleased to see it finally released in the UK. I am excited and looking forward to it being delivered.

Yes, I've pre-ordered one and it will be my first Kindle. I put in my order before the August 1 cutoff date so mine should be shipped as part of the first shipment.
What finally persuaded me to order one was the addition of WiFi (3G service is poor where I live) and the lower price for the WiFi-only model. I'm looking forward to getting it and trying it out. Is it August 27th yet? |

I've pre-ordered one. I've wanted a Kindle for a while now and now that they're being sold in the UK, I've grabbed myself one. I can't wait until it arrives! Have to wait till 4th Sept around I guess but I've got my sony to tide me over until then. I will miss the epub format though.
I'm sooo excited! Ordered the hot pink cover with it as well - may change that to the cover with the light but not sure, since that costs £50. I like the sony user interface and easy navigation but the amazon book prices are the selling point. My first ever Kindle. Last edited by DarkHaloPrincess; 08-09-2010 at 07:18 AM. |

Finally made my move - Graphite 3G and Wi-fi - would love delivery for my birthday in October but not that fussed. Might start buying books in readiness - feel like a kid in a sweet factory!

Amazon says Kindles ordered today should be delivered on or before September 8th. I think you'll have it in plenty of time, so Happy Birthday!

My K2 is going to my husband. Wish my 12 year-old daughter wanted it!
I figure the only time I could miss 3G is when I am traveling. But my husband, with his K2, will have it. So I can buy the book, take his K2, and let him read a romance off my K3. Yeah, that should work! |

I had a DXG show up about a month ago and liked it so much I ordered a wi-fi for me and a white wi-fi + 3G for the wife.
Ordered them 7/30, so I hope they 2 day ship 8/27 as promised. Regards - John |
