Of course the number of pages will depend on the size of the print you have selected but it will tell you that you are on page x of how many pages there are.

It's all to do with copyright laws, and I would not order till you get it as you set up a specific kindle account with amazon, then you can order them to be sent to your kindle account, also, assuming you have WiFi you will get an account set up on the kindle, so the books are sent straight there.

Yes. You can register up to 6 kindles on one account. Any books downloaded are automatically made available to the others on the account. They will appear in 'archived books' ready for downloading to the home page when the wi-fi is switched on.

hi, i deregistered it from the amazon.com site as that way i would have to get my books from there. I bought via the co.uk site and had sent to a uk address, so it shouldnt have been on .com site in first place.
I want to be able to get my books from co.uk as has been recommended many a time on here.

That's what i would like to know, but more importantly, I want to make sure it can be re-registered on the co.uk account or i will just have to send it back! I dont know if it made a difference that my address registered to the card i used to pay for it on PayPal is a spanish address....?

Yes, that's what i would expect to happen, as that is exactly what i did...except with mine there is nothing showing on amazon.co.uk only on amazon.com, which is why i have de-registered it with them. it doesnt make any sense.

We haave just ordered our Kindles from UK and looked in the Manage your Kindle bit and it says that ours are registered with .com so when you have found out what to do can you please let us know.

They sent me an apologetic message and changed it for me. I dont even know why I ended up on .com, as I ordered with a UK credit card and had it delivered to the UK

Rosemary, just go into your kindle account, email them and tell them that you have been erroneously registered on .com, and that you will be purchasing your books in the UK. I think you can actually do it yourself in the account iirc.

In fact, go on to "manage my kindle" and drop down to just above your past orders, and you will see your country. Check that it is set to the UK, and if not then edit it to change to UK. If it shows Spain then you will have been registered to the .com site probably. If it doesnt work then as I said, email them
