That's a broken link buddy.
Was this what you meant ?
May not be worth it to ship in at all. Cost of shipping it in even with the Bulk and lets say using USPS is going to cost more than the Mouse itself because
of Volumetric Weight.
Plus its already available in Lowyat for I think about RM50. Comparable to what Amazon is selling.
Youd find better luck in Lowyat actually smile.gif.

Some folks have requested via PM that I show real examples of Chinese text on the Kindle and how its displayed.
Just for them to be sure. So, you know I dont read Chinese right, thus unless some of you can actually
send me examples of .mobi or .azw or .prc files or even .pdf files of your own I can show it here.
hi all,
may be need this, this and this hack* in order to show proper chinese text.thanks!!! smile.gif
*Important!!!
Use this hack and instructions at your own risk after reading ALL OF THEM carefully! Although I tested it to the best of my ability on my own devices I can’t guarantee that it will work on yours and will not be responsible for any damage (including completely and irreversibly bricking your device) it may have caused!!!

Awesome links smile.gif
Today's a Friday means no work tomorrow, perhaps Ill start compiling the information on the Kindle
for everyone's benefit tonight.

Also, actually for the screenshot i posted on Kindle displaying Chinese above, those
are direct PDF's they dont need conversion.
Pros : Easy and You conserve any pictures.
Cons : You cant increase PDF's fonts.

If you convert them per the links above :
Pros : Your text in Chinese can perhaps be increased in size.
Cons : A little hassle with the conversion.

hi estara,
agree with you. smile.gif
i think havocx is compiling those info..biggrin.gif

Thanks guys smile.gif
Yep Im actually compiling those info so itll fit into one page, itll help me as well since there's loads of queries coming in from
folks via PM too and some of them are repeats of answers Ive already posted or have been posted on the site, ive compiled some
of the FAQ's already on the bottom of the first post though. Im thinking though to move it over to one dedicated post to get all the
in. That way itll be much much easier smile.gif
Some News !
I was at the Japanese Embassy today making my Visa for my upcoming Japan trip and whilst waiting I saw this girl reading a Kindle.
She looked Japanese. Wow i thought, cool stuff, Japanese folks are reading Kindle too.
A more pleasant suprise is when I said hello, I immediately recognised her as fluene  rclxms.gif
Coolness to see the Kindle in use, even more when its from a bulk I did. We spoke a bit and I saw some of the stuff fluene was
talking about in her earlier posts, excellent excellent stuff.

Awesome! With all the compiled info, I'm sure all of us will be Kindle pros in no time. whistling.gif
And my my...what a story of coincidence! Almost fit for a movie plot. laugh.gif

One question to anyone who knows the answer.
I don't really feel like jailbreaking the Kindle, it's complicated and probably will void the warranty but I need it for reading Chinese ebooks besides English ones. So, can Chinese ebooks be converted into a Kindle-friendly format where the fonts are able to be enlarged? (without going through jailbreaking that is...) Sorry if this was addressed before.

Hi estara,
Try converting the file to *.mobi using Calibre. Search this thread for Calibre for more info on how to use the software. See if this could help. Good luck! smile.gif

Haha, actually it wont void the warranty and not really that hard, took 2 minutes to do smile.gif
but really once ive done it, its actually more for you to have different screensavers, really. There's no pressing need to actually do it.
Also, the jailbreak can be reversed in case you need to.

By default as long as its in PDF you can already display. Otherwise like the post by mr.anutta you can convert them to .mobi (better quality)
or .prc to have that effect. Not all will transfer and convert nicely though, so you need to have a failure tolerance.Also as per post 357 for folks who have a lot of small font PDF files which are actually ebooks I found a converter.
Only catch is that your pictures (if any) wont undergo any conversion.
Its called Free PDF to Text and that will allow
a conversion of text based PDF to only text. Havent tried it though smile.gif

That's a mighty large item buddy and since im shipping
in my bulks via Fedex / DHL, it may be a tad high, but then again check your quote.
At the quoted amount, you'll receive the item in about 14 working days from the date you pay.
Your decision buddy nod.gif
