EXCELLENT!!!

I got my Kindle!!

Thanks to havocx for all the trouble.

This bulk is actually my first time paying such a big amount upfront for buying something (normally I do COD). When I first express my interest in joining the bulk, he PM-ed me all his information, with a whole list details and he took time to answer all my concerns too.

Not surprisingly, I wasn't worried at all for the bulk with the frequent updates sent by havocx even with his busy schedule. When the kindles arrived, he not only PM-ed, but also SMS-ed to notify on the kindle's arrival.

The excited me couldn't wait any longer and quickly arranged a meetup with havocx. I only gave him like 20 minutes notice. When he passed me the kindle, he took the time to do a demo on the kindle as well. I was practically drooling on the e-ink display.

havocx, thanks for all your time and effort in organizing this bulk. Kudos!

now.. time to continue playing with my kindle.

Thanks for the compliments ailinchia
Im glad youre enjoying the Kindle, hope the rest of the folks that got them on the bulk are too. I know I sure am
Played around with some pictures of the Kindle yesterday



Thats an Iphone 4, Ipad and Kindle all on the same page side by side with half brightness.
Guess which is more pleasing to the eyes heh. Take them outside though in the harsh bright sunlight, and voila,
Full brightness on Iphone 4 and Ipad - Totally dark and hardly able to make out the display.
Same brightness on Kindle - Still the same, readable

Hopefully the rest finds the same enjoyment, Im getting requests for a 2nd bulk, ill reopen them on Monday if there's more request

hi,

I have pm you my spec.
Just want to know, if we need to register our device to amazon and can we do that in Malaysia?

Thanks

Yep,
That you can, and like ours on the First Bulk, they can be registered even if we're in Malaysia. Some books we cant get since our IP would show that we're from Malaysia but using Proxy's there's still ways around that. Besides, there's a lot of Free ebook resources out there.

Project Guttenberg with 33,000 free ebooks for instance

For folks who are looking for leather Kindle cases, here are couple of them that I found which come with rather reasonable prices:

(a) CrazyOnDigital Kindle Case - only available in Black USD11.99



(b) CaseCrown for Kindle 3 - available in Black, Red, Hot Pink and Baby Pink USD12.21



© rooCase Folio - available in Black (USD20.16), Graphite Grey, Magenta and Red (the rest USD25)

Sure thing buddy, going with sugarpinky's recommendation eh Alrighty then, updated your order. Will collect payment next week.

By the way havocx, have you applied the screen protector on your Kindle? If so, does the anti-glare feature truly works or it makes the screen even harder to read?

Another thing is, is it easy to apply it yourself?

I got a screen protector for myself, its Anti Glare BUT i didnt see the need to put it on, yet. The e-ink screen is simply amazing. How ? Well its really hard to explain until you see it for yourself. The only reason I would put it on is to protect the screen. The e-ink screen by itself is already superbly flat and is as anti glare as a normal newspaper you read in bright sunlight, ie no glare at all.

To apply, I have some experience in applying other screen protectors but when in doubt send to Handphone shop, pay the man RM3 he'll do it nice

In that case, do include the screen protector along with the case that I ordered, yeah.

Thankie!

havocx, thanks for a big job well done!

Heh Salute Yong Thanks for the compliments, glad youre enjoying your Kindle
Will try my best to handle the new orders coming in. Its really hard work though since I do have my normal day job to do, this should be my last bulk for Kindle's though. The first was cuz I was ordering two for myself, 2nd one to help out those who still is looking out for one, but maybe not a 3rd Bulk, we'll see though

The 4.82 is shipping to Malaysia ? Thats an amazing price is thats the shipping cost. In any case glad to have helped earlier, hope you enjoy your Kindle, let me know if you have further questions on the Kindle, ive 'Jailbroken' mine haha ! Thanks again!

correct, it is in my invoice, and i have paid.
i tried another order, the shipping is still 4.82.

for other covers, the shipping shown is at least $16....

so have u installed ur own custom screensaver?

i haven't started "jailbreaking" mine yet. i need to do that to start exploring kindlets.

Great job havocx for this bulk. Sorry couldnt reply to this thread earlier since i just came back from my vacation.

I dont know much about the packaging since its delivered to my hometown, so its my mom who handles it but im sure its all good.

I seriously dont mind bulking with havocx again because of his constant updating of the item and how detailed everything is. Thanks again

Heya,

Just wanted to say thanks for all the assist in getting the Kindle and Cover for me! Really appreciate you handling my last minute order, then also keeping me updated throughout all the delivery of the order (my most excited news was when you told me Kindle arrived in Malaysia my first thought - so fast!)

Hopefully the package will be delivered in the hands of its brand new owner latest by tomorrow, since it got shipped to East Malaysia..

Excellent job, excellent service, and very very friendly

Keep up the good job and looking forward to bulk purchasing with you again!
