I have never tried one of these, or even seen one. TD poster Rawlins suggested Kindle as a possible solution to the dearth of bookstores in the Philippines. I went on Amazon, and the Kindle Fire looked pretty neat, and at a great price. It was looking good until I read a review saying don't buy it if you live outside of the US, as you can't access the store or lots of other stuff. Can TD Kindle owner/operators give me any words of wisdom? I am low on the computer literacy scale, and am basically looking for something to read books or watch movies and old TV shows on that is not too complicated. Thoughts? Especially as to having problems accessing stuff from overseas. Thanks.
