Title: Kindle2 for Canadians
Product review: I really love my Kindle2. I have had mine for a few weeks and it is really small, light and easy to read. The problem that I have is it isn't really user friendly for non-Americans. I had my Kindle2 shipped overseas via a friend's address in the US, only to find that I couldn't use it without an American credit card and billing address. Luckily, I have a friend who was willing to lend me their credit card. So that my friend is never charged, I purchase gift certificates and apply them to my Amazon account. It works but it leaves me reliant on my friend's generosity, which is inconvenient. While I love my Kindle2, my friend bought a Sony E-reader and he seems just as happy with it. I find it frustrating that my Canadian credit card is good enough for paperbacks but not for the Kindle books. My suggestion would be to look at buying a Sony E-reader if Amazon doesn't bring the Kindle to Canada soon!
