Amazon’s Kindle Touch is now available worldwide
With all this “fuss” about Kindle Fire, we have essentially forgotten about the traditional e-book reader devices in the series. Now it’s time to remember them again, as Amazon decided to give Kindle Touch a “passport”. Specifically, the device was previously available only to American customers, but now it can be sent to any country. As for Greece, the total cost, including shipping & handling, amounts to 160 euros.
Strangely enough, in countries with their own Amazon stores, like England, Germany and France, Kindle Touch is not available through these local stores, nor can they order it through the US Amazon store. The other day, I was reading a colleague’s complaint on Facebook, about an online store (not Amazon), that has suspended its transactions with users from Greece. In this case however, the largest online store in the world closes the door on the major leagues in Europe, but allows Greeks to walk right in.
