Amazon has just announced the latest model of their 6-inch Kindle eBook Reader. It has now been divided into two — a WiFi-only and the WiFi+3G models.
They first announced this on the bigger Kindle DX about 2 weeks ago. Now, the smaller 6″ Kindle also comes in graphite color on top of the usual white one.
They’re also smaller, lighter and has better contrast. Best of all the WiFi-only model is down to just $139. The Kindle WiFi + Free 3G will sell for $189. Not bad — it should drive the prices of all the other eReaders down as well.
The new Kindle will be out by August 27 but you may want to pre-order (click here) now if you want first dibs.
The 3G really works here in the Philippines and it’s 100% FREE!

We have incoming stocks of Kindle WiFi tis Feb 4 and we’re selling for 8k only. The 3G is 10.6k but order basis
We also give out tons of free eBooks!
I am wondering if I can download Kindle books from my PC to the Kindle3 wi fi or do I have to buy the 3G to download them. I have several that I downloaded on my PC here in the Philippines.
@willbuykindle It comes with a USB connector which you can plug into your laptop/PC and use as a charger. If you want an adaptor that plugs into a wall socket, it’s not included in the package and you have to order a separate one. Make sure that you order the European charger.
@KenC You can use the USB connector to transfer your old ebooks from PC to Kindle, as long as they’re in AZW, PDF or MOBI formats. No need for 3G.
i tried to order thru amazon but it says “This item cannot be shipped to the address you selected. (Learn more.) You may either change the shipping address or remove the item by clicking Delete. ” Help!

Maybe you were in the US page? Look for the box where it says “Live outside the US?” then choose your country. It will direct you to the right page.
Great Info, I Need More on kindle wifi
Anyone tried ordering from web and can share their experience with shipping/customs fee? Just curious…
Hi,
For those who ordered directly at amazon and already received their units, did you received it in good condition? Just a little apprehensive of shipping it over a considerable distance since it is very thin and fragile. I would also appreciate any feedback on which shipping method works best, JAC or DHL? Thanks!
Thanks a lot!
i got my kindle in good condition. it is fitted snugly inside a preformed cardboard container that’s adhesed to the box. both front and back are protected by this hard cardboard. they may or may not put THAT box inside another box for shipping depending if you ordered another item or not.
you dont get to choose which shipping company to use. amazon chooses for you (i think they have like contracts or partnerships with shipping companies). in any case, mine was delivered by dhl and so was my sister’s (separate delivery). her kindle arrived in good condition too.
hope that helps.
@adiknasakindle How much was the shipping fee?
