Kindle For Mac & iPhone/iPod Touch

Here's a secret. If you're having problems downloading / accessing the Amazon Kindle Store - there's a way in! You should probably read this, this and this before proceeding.

When Kindle for Mac came out (finally!) I was really excited, so I clicked on the link in Amazon's notification - and voila - "You cannot use Kindle in Bahrain". I also realized there was a way to change my location - and so I did... to my Indian address. (And all this time, I thought they were checking my IP address).

And what have you... I was able to download Mac for Kindle, and wait... even for Iphone/Ipod as well - oh and also view the Amazon Kindle Book Store! Tried a purchase... and hey! Who needs to buy a Kindle!

Revelation.

(Just go to your account, check the section Digital Content and click on Manage Your Kindle to change the location to some other one like US or India, where Kindle is sold).

How Do You Read?

I'm a voracious reader. However, I have one question: Would you prefer paper to screen? 

Would you enjoy a book better if it were on a few dead trees or a few electrons? Would it make a difference if you saved the trees in this world? What would you do if your electronic device ran out of battery power? Would you be able to fall asleep reading, without worrying about crushing the screen? Would you be able to save space in your home? What are you doing? Are you using an iPhone or Kindle or Sony eReader?

Ok, so that wasnt one question. But you get the drift... to those bookworms out there, help this fellow decide!
