Hi TS,

May i know how you make the kindle be in VPN.
or are u using the below method to access the store.
Am reading all sorts of ways to pass the hurdle just to use kindle.

example.
VPN using PC to buy kindle apps and content and send to kindle account.
removing those CC details.
Sending gift cards instead of gettin US CCs.


May i know is it the prime membership is just for the free shows n books?

Prime member get to benefit from Video, Book and Shopping.

VPN applies to watching Amazon instant video
VPN applies to downloading app from appstore using coins
Install OpenVPN to activate VPN.

Pior to using app store and amazon video, it is compulsory to have a US billing address.

Without a US billing address, you cannot download or purchase anything from amazon instant video and appstore.

Sorry if i ask some noob question cos i am really tempted to buy a kindle.
So the openVpn is activated on the kindle.
I log in to Private Tunnel.Then i can use the kindle to watch insta video and download apps from the kindle store directly?
no need to by gift cards and use PC to buy?


So actually i have a Amazon account now which i use to buy things, will it be better if i setup a new one to get prime and everything just soley for kindle.
(heard need to remove local CC payment from Amazon)

Thanks in Advnace.
if i use my borderlinx address okay?

I was thinking of the 8.9hd.. Its $80usd off.. Very worth it.. But the dual core cannot manage the current 3.1 firmware..

get a normal screen guard.
a flip case with stand will do.
skinomi can forget it..
