I have " Kindle titles for your country are not available at Amazon.co.uk.  Please shop for Kindle titles at Amazon.fr."
That is almost certainly illegal under EU law.  Take Amazon to the European Court of Justice.

It's weird, because I live in Switzerland and could buy it yesterday night for 99p on Amazon.co.uk without any problem.
And today, Achilles ?

Thanks for that, Whandsy - just scored it for 49p!

As for 'lending' Kindle books, Fried, unless you subscribe to the Kindle Library service, the best way I've found so far is to simply ask a friend who has a book you're interested in if you can register your Kindle with their details, and voila -there it is. I do this all the time with various members of family and friends.

It explains why it was working for me: I'm registered with a british address.

(I find it very depressing that I can't print selected pages, though ...).

Phil, if you have Calibre installed you can print separate pages that way.

Cheers, Ken

Thank you, Ken.  I am sure I have Calibre installed somewhere; it's just a question of finding out in which VM it is installed !

But how do you do that if the book is delivered via whispernet and you dont have a hard copy of the file?
