I'm in Chile. Does anyone know if I'll be able to use the experimental web browser (via 3G) if I get a Kindle?Amazon posted:Access Wikipedia via Whispernet on the experimental web browser. Access other websites like Google via a Wi-Fi connection. If yes I'd be inclined to get the $139 model . VVVVV Interesting. Now I'm not sure which model I should get. lunar detritus fucked around with this message at 18:16 on Dec 1, 2010 |

z0331 posted:My wife's trying to get me a Kindle for Christmas. We're in Japan right now so she apparently has to order the version labeled International on the website. It claims it won't ship for 7-9 weeks. Does anyone know if that's accurate? Seems pretty ridiculous since it's just the same as the regular Kindle, isn't it? I was thinking about buying one but screw waiting until February for it to get here.

fishmech posted:There's no special International version now. There was an International Kindle 2 which was the later model of the Kindle 2 though. You should try having someone in the US order to a US address, since there is no delay here, and then have it shipped to you. Are you absolutely sure about this? Do you have a source? I really want a Kindle and getting it during 2010 would be ideal. EDIT: Apparently US/Canada and European/International Kindles have different serial numbers depending of what SIM they use. lunar detritus fucked around with this message at 19:08 on Dec 2, 2010 |

Murodese posted:That's why I automated it Pulling down the entirety of 1p took a little under an hour from memory (600-ish chapters)? Unless you're talking about release speed, in which case I tried downloading yotsubato and after 20 minutes it still hadn't downloaded a volume.

Does anyone use the Kindle as a todo list or a very simple PIM? I find myself using the Kindle first time in the morning to read the news and having a todo list there would be nice. Maybe syncing the RSS feed of an online task manager like Remember the Milk via Calibre? Any suggestions?

Actually, I'm pretty sure I saw some old newspapers' feeds imported using Calibre in the archived section.

I wish the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary was available for the Kindle. I wouldn't have to carry around that monstrosity.

I have wireless off. Should I uninstall the screensaver hack before it updates?

The paperwhite with special offers still is the best value/price e-reader, right?

I finally got a Paperwhite to replace my broken Kindle Keyboard and having a lighted screen is amazing, it completely changes the experience. I was worried about the lack of page turn buttons but tapping the screen makes it a non-problem. The only problem I'm having is the lack of bezel to grab the thing, the KK had a lot of space and was more comfortable. Other than that I'm happy.

What do you use to send online articles to your Kindle? I read a lot of long form articles and I'd like to move that reading to something easier on my eyes.

I broke my paperwhite a month after getting it . It's a tiny crack but the light makes it unusable.

Flo Cytometer posted:What generation is it? I may be able to rebuild yours for around $40 and shipping. I think it's 2nd gen, 4gb. I'm in Chile so I doubt the shipping would be worth it. Zingih posted:If it's under warranty Amazon should fix it for free. I looked into it when I somehow got the same thing, mine was out of warranty though so I was poo poo out of luck. lunar detritus fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Jul 16, 2015 |

If I wanted to read comics, would a cheap android tablet be enough? I have a paperwhite but it's annoying for that kind of thing.
