Comment on And Still No e-Reader for Singapore by Logan W

You are aware that even if the Nook isn’t sold out, it too like the Kindle, doesn’t ship to Singapore either right?

Quoted from their FAQ: “No. At this time, nook is not for sale outside the U.S.”

I know… I’ve been searching for a reader that works here too. :(

Hey ML, the funny thing about your article is that even with the existing Kindle 2, users do not incur roaming charges. Users don’t pay a single cent when using the wireless service to download books.

Amazon covers the cost of wireless 3G access. Users don’t pay nothin. What would be the point of adding a SIM card slot? Now users will have to pay not just for the books, but also the data plan. Sure, I’ll pay for it, but do you think the general population of the world would even care about paying extra when books can be downloaded over BitTorrent so easily?

Read the technical specs in Amazon before posting your false comments.

My daughter lives in Singapore and I would like to give her a Kindle for x-mas.
Please let me know how she can get around the censoring of books.

Thanks,

Vivian
