Amazon Kindle store + device: The Australian difference
review Amazon might have started selling its Kindle range of eBook readers in Australia late last year, but there is a world of difference between the performance of the device and range of the Kindle bookstore in Australia compared with Amazon’s home country of the US.
This article will document that difference to make it clear what readers are — and aren’t — getting when they buy a Kindle in Australia — specifically focusing on the Australian aspects of the device without going into a general review of the entire platform.
For the purposes of this review we borrowed a Kindle DX from Amazon, as well as consulting with colleagues based in the US for comparison purposes.
