Tesco have a pretty good deal on them at the moment, 111 for the wifi version or 152 for the 3g/wifi.
That's the same as Amazon's pricing isn't it?
*looks* - ah yes, so it is.
Still, if you don't have patience you can nip in and pick one up at Tesco!
(I'll mosey on away now...)
Picked up a 3g one for my Birthday. Just wouldnt be without it now. (even though the grief I get from my book loving, pureist missus; who things if a book doesnt smell of mouldy paper, and break your wrist when trying to read it in bed, then it's not a book)
Also noticed Carphone Warehouse are selling them, but again at the same price - looks like pricing has been dictated across the board for these. Just waiting on the missus giving me the go ahead.Quote:

Thanks Kim! :)
You won't regret getting one! We've now got four 3G kindles in our family and everyone loves them :D. They're great for going abroad as well because the 3G just works and is great for checking email while on the move :)Quote:

It can natively view PDFs, but it's not great. I prefer to convert them using Calibre (think of it a bit like a book verison of iTunes!) and then move them across to my Kindle.Quote:

It also says in that article that the current cheapest kindle is £84 - anyone know anything about this?

The retail giant has started taking orders in the US for the device, which costs $114 (£69) - $25 (£15) less than the current entry level model.

Got my kindle, and using Calibre to arrange my books. Over the moon with it, but I have about 3 hours of ironing to do tonight, and football tomorrow night so not sure when I'll get my first chance to use it!
