Hi,

Just want to say thanks for a great post!!

I'm currently in the UK and have just purchased a Kindle Fire. I was thinking along the same lines as you described here and had already started the process of registering a new account, gift card and Email address for using the Kindle.

Does anyone have any thoughts on getting content to the Fire while outside of the US. I am considering using a VPN service for the US. I am thinking about updating the content on the Fire going through a a US VPN. I don't know what settings I can change on the Fire yet. Either way, i think if I was to put the vpn client on my laptop and connect to Amazon MP3 cloud ETC will be available. In fact it is, I've checked.

What i need to do now is "point " my Fire at my laptop to connect to the Internet. I can do this (i think) by running a proxy on my laptop and configuring the Fire to access the Internet via my laptop. i.e Fire -> (configured to connect to an IP address of proxy on Laptop) -> Laptop( (VPN US) -> Amazon content.

Does anyone have any thought on this?

Thanks.
