Smile Hi from Sydney
Hi

I am about to receive my Kindle next week and am anxiously reading all the posts to find out how to access a good selection ebooks on my Kindle - basically I want a wider selection than what Amazone makes available to Australians. Having read the posts it seems purchasing a gift card may work (but Amazon seems to be chasing some of the people last year trying to get them to prove that they actually live in Australia. Does the gift card option work? Is there any other way of accessing a wider selection? Help!

Hello Courton and welcome to MR. Good to see another Aussie joining.

For info on the Kindle check out the subforum - but as a lurker you have probably found it already.

G'day Courton. There's a whole bunch of Oz members at MR now (all great fun and avid readers). I'm sure you'll soon get the very best of advice. Cheers. Neil

G' Day courton and welcome to MobileRead. If they insist on you proving you're an Aussie, just mumble something about Fosters not being as good as Vikki Bitter (LOL)

Courton, hello.
I can testify that our resident Aussies are all aces! The most helpful and nice people around. If they take over I will be quite happy.
If, by chance, you want to exchange some ideas in Italian, here I am.
