The Best E-Book Reader for Canadians
Last generation, the Kindle 2 was the only Kindle Canadians could get, this time around Canadians have the option of going for the Kindle DX or the Kindle 3.
The strange thing is that Amazon has local sites for every country, but only sells Kindles through their American site, meaning you get hit with a bit of shipping charges, where most stuff ships in countries for free. But that really just cancels out the taxes Americans pay that Canadians don’t, so it winds up being a wash. There are some other good ebook readers, like the Chapters ebook reader and the Sony lines that you can just drive to the local store and buy, but I would advise still picking the Kindle of your choice.
The prices points are cheaper, or you get more features, like Wifi and 3G most notably. The bookstore is massive and easy to use, you can even do it all from your Kindle on free 3G wireless. In short you now have all the options that Americans have for ebooks reader. You just have to pay a bit more because it has to go a little farther to get there ![]()
For Canadians that jealously watched your southern neighbors enjoy their Kindles from above, they don’t have anything on you anymore.
