If Amazon wants to be a global player it has to play globally. Not restrict its offers to one relatively small country of 300 M inhabitants vs. a global population of 6,800 M.
In what sense is the third largest nation by population "relatively small"? And do you deride Project Gutenberg for spending four years and two hundred books before doing in anything in a language other than English? It's not unreasonable for them to start out small and work their way out, especially given that their multinational basis makes them particularly vulnerable to countries like Germany which would happily sue if Amazon doesn't correctly censor what's available. In any case, your complaints are moot; the Kindle is available to you now. -- Kie ekzistas vivo, ekzistas espero.
