Amazon Offer Kindle for Sale in Europe – Will they Succeed?
Posted by under Iphone 3gs Review on Saturday Jun 19, 2010E-book reader Amazon Kindle is already on sale in the UK and Europe, which comes with a power adapter U.S. support voltages between 100V and 240V so you can use anywhere in Europe. Amazon has begun offering the Kindle in Europe at the end of October 2009, breaking the barrier domain of a potential e-reader market. There is, however, sold by local sites, like Amazon Amazon. co. United Kingdom, but only from the main site Amazonas American. com. It is sold in U.S. dollars and shipped from the United States, but is ordered by the Europeans through regular reports. So what are the advantages of the Kindle in the other e-readers that have been available in Europe for some time and that most people interested in the eBook reader now. Examples include the Sony PRS, er fresh and iRex, but there are many others against whom the Kindle is time to prove itself. It is proposed worldwide 3G network at no cost to the wireless connectivity you can download eBooks directly on the Kindle. However, blogs and Web browser are experimenting with is not available. It’s too late for Amazon to enter the European market? The first signs are not. Sales were strong, especially in the United Kingdom and Western Europe, where it seems that consumers are smart to go for the Kindle range of features and is not seen. However, the strength of iPhone in Europe could be a serious competitor once it was amended to a full e-reader. Apple is not known to be left in any technology. Moreover, as noted in the article “The future of book reading EBook Mobile?” The future is probably in a portable digital player that downloads and plays music, provides Internet access, integrates a digital camera and can be used as a phone (Digital Reading books). The electronic library available for Kindle users are very spacious, with Amazon offering over 200,000 titles in English, and publishers like Penguin, HarperCollins and Faber and Faber company to offer degrees compatible with Kindle. To date only the U.S. newspapers and magazines are available, but should not be long before the top of the UK and European newspapers are added to the list. As shown, prices are in U.S. dollars, and a Kindle currently sells in the UK from Amazon. com for $ 259, plus local customs, taxes and other charges, including accessories such as charger, top of the leather case and user guide are available from your local Amazon sites in local currency. In the UK the price is equal to £ 157 UK – compared to the Sony PRS-505 lbs-225, the Bebook to £ 240 and the cool-er than £ 190 (all to the nearest pound), the Kindle seems to be the best deals. You can get the pocket-book and Sony for less than £ 160 if you know where to look, and all these products can be purchased at lower prices in other web sites using the Internet to compare prices, but these are the basic prices and Amazon a quick survey indicated that the differences were generally maintained elsewhere. However, buying the U.S. site, you can not find the actual price, including tax and delivery until actually payment information. Process in which the price is £ 202. 63: still beats the Sony PRS Bebook and price, and given the limitations of the Cool-er and the size of Sony’s pocket, which is still cheaper, there seems no reason why Kindle should not be so successful in Europe and in United States. So what are the advantages of the Kindle for competitors? Probably the support of Amazon, the largest distributor of electronic books on the planet, is reason enough in itself. Add to that the incredibly transparent display technology with e-ink, and everything anyone could want in an e-reader, and then you have your answer. Add to that the 3G, you do not need to connect the reader to nothing, not even come within 100 miles from one computer to work, then your competitors are dead in the water. Battery life will never be, and everything is ease of use, ease and speed of unloading and storage capacity of 200 books, that’s all. Add to that the MP3 player can play through the speakers or headphones it shares with iRex (Sony needs headphones), so you have a machine that is the first class, and for which only the price was not right. Now that the price is right in Europe than the competition then we should be holding around Kindle. At least until Apple can not find a competitor to 3G to enable faster download e-books, and then the world of e-readers will come down again with a pitched battle that Amazon could not enjoy – but knowing Apple, love!
