Dear all,

What I did was just to reconfirm the same US address, and reactivate 1 Click. And it works smile.gif

No VPN, No fake credit card smile.gif

I do it via PC web browser.

I have no idea why it doesn't work on your kindle though.

seems like they not only detected my kindle purchase, they blocked me out of the amazon Android app store as well... bloody hell! no email warnings or anything of that sort... just plain "purchase error" on my android phone.

trying to see if i can still download books.

anyone knows if i bought books on one account, and if i change accounts, can i download the books to my kindle first, then switch accounts, and will the books still be there?

update: the free ebooks still go through... i'm abit hesitant to buy new books since they might lock me out anytime... but the amazon app store still doesn't work... maybe i should create a 2nd app store account and keep it separate from my ebooks account


Added on November 8, 2011, 10:28 pmok i've done it!

I updated my ebooks amazon account, and all free ebooks seem to be able to go through. I haven't downloaded on my ipad yet... will try soon

i created another account for amazon app store only since that has been blocked for my ebooks account due to geographical restrictions... i really don't understand why it works that way. I'm willing to change my app store account as they are all free apps anyway but my ebooks account has got paid books which i paid quite alot of money for...

i really don't understand why is it so difficult to get books which we are willing to pay for!

Amazon Appstore (for Android) is different from Amazon Kindle.

What I'm trying to say is, they are different product, hence it will come with different limitation.

I'm ok with Kindle app smile.gif

For Appstore, you will need to key in fake name & ICs, which is, in a way illegal smile.gif

Maybe they have a tighter verification now, but for me it was fine buying books all these while in Malaysia smile.gif

Kindle Cover

There are various different devices over at Amazon that can help with this. There are clip on lights like those little book reading light clips that you can buy for a couple of dollars. However, because they have the name 'Kindle reading light' in the name, they shoot up to around $20.

There are also cases which permit the addition of a light. These cases are fairly cheap to begin with, but once you add that extra light (which is usually sold separately) it can add up. Also, batteries in a light are something that you will also need to deal with, replacing them when they die etc. Most reading lights will probably last around 20 hours of illumination, so depending on how often you read in the dark, this could range from one week, to a couple of months.

Once case that solves this is the official Kindle Lighted cover which includes a light in the case that hooks into the battery. It solves the issue of replacing batteries, as only the Kindle itself needs to be charged. more information about kindle cover review you can visit : Kindle Cover
