I am actually also looking for an ebook reader. Perhaps the Sony one. The Amazon kindle is very restrictive. You can only buy books from Amazon. Are you planning to use it here in Nigeria.
There should be e book readers at the major electronic shops in Lagos. At the palms, pc outlet, etc. I will probably check the Sony shops in V/I, Lekki and Ikeja.

it can be used anywhere. actually you can manually load your ebooks from your PC on to the reader. you don't have to buy anything from amazon. just for reading books.

Flyuche, I could get this for you but not within your timeframe. If you dont get any until 1st in January, you can let me know.
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by Nobody: 3:40pm On Dec 23, 2010
@Flyuche but if you want to buy e books online, you can only buy from Amazon. And I don't think it you would be able to read e books bought from other websites. But why wouldnt you prefer the Sony version?

Does anyone know the price range here in nigeria? I know in the US it goes for about $200.

i have an Amazon.com account. i have been buying stuff like hard-copy books, shirts and CDs. but this they don't ship to Nigeria. and you know i have Nigerian bank issued debit mastercard.
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by Nobody: 4:32pm On Dec 23, 2010
@Flyuche. So any luck yet? I'm also planning to get one. I'm hoping it won't be much more than $200 equivalent. But have you done research on other ebook readers available? I always like to know exactly what I'm buying. The sony prs 950 looks pretty tight and you can buy books from any store and it seem to support more file formats than the kindle. plus its a sony,  and their products are usually of the best quality.
I'm not really plannin to buy books online but the fact it lets u buy from any store as compared to the kindle which shackles u to amazon makes it a little better in my eyes.

The kindle is long gone.
The sony reader is brand new, just opened and used for demo purposes.
It doesn't need any form of unlocking.
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by Nobody: 5:02pm On Jan 08, 2011
Demo purposes? What's that? If everything is still factory fresh and all the accessories are complete, then I would be ready to buy it by mid month or so. How come you bought the kindle then sold it?
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by walan(m): 2:42pm On Jan 17, 2011
Hi, has anyone been able to locate a store here in Nigeria to get the Amazon Kindle yet.
I can't wait to get my hands on that device. Any suggestion is welcomed.
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by Nobody: 12:38pm On Feb 05, 2011
i am also interested in the kindle, any updates?
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by Nobody: 1:13pm On Feb 05, 2011
I don't think any store in Lagos stocks ebook readers. I've checked at the palms, pc outlet, park and shop, cash and carry,etc. However, on kalahari . com, they have the iriver story and iriver cover story in stock. The prices are a little steep, but i believe the ereaders are competent.

I am surprised at the rate at which Nigerians are buying e-book reader these days, r u aware that Sony 950 could do what kindle would do and a little cheaper?
Anyhow, we could deliver what you want at a cost of 78K Naira
Re: I Need The Amazon Kindle 3g Ebook Reader. by osikhueme(f): 4:58pm On Feb 07, 2011
Sony ereader is 7". That's too small for a reader if you ask me!! Kindle DX is 9.7"!!! 78k? It's $379 on Amazon, so even if you factor in shipping costs, 78k is way too much

78K Naira = 500$$
So if sold for 379$$ on amazon, dnt forget that you would pay tax on that.
Will pay for shipping
Will clear at Lagos Airport
So do the math again, and you would know that is very reasonable.
