BOOKSELLER REPORTS KINDLE TO LAUNCH SOON

The Bookseller says it has heard from authoritative sources that Amazon.com will finally announce the arrival of its e-book device the Kindle in the UK in the early part of October

A major problem in bringing the Kindle Reader to the UK is the differing mobile network protocols that exist on either side of the Atlantic. In the US the reader uses the whispernet mobile network to access online books. The UK reader will need to be able to access the European mobile network.
