How to buy Kindle Books in Singapore?

Many users in Singapore should have no problem getting a Kindle 3. They can buy online through Amazon and get it ship to a US intermediate Address like Vpost and Borderlinx. Once Amazon shipped the items to them, they will forward the items to your Singapore local address. But I advised you to get it through the local resellers which are selling on Hardwarezone, VR1, Gmarket, Ebay and blogs.

The challenge now is how to get Kindle Books on your Kindle 3? We are going to show you how to get the Kindle Ebooks without Amazon asking you for proof of residency.

STEP 1: ADD A CORRECT USA ADDRESS

Firstly, you will need a USA Postal Address. If you have sign up for VPost or Borderlinx then u should have a USA Address.

STEP 2: GO TO MANAGE YOUR KINDLE

Go to Account>>>Manage Your Kindle in your Amazon account. Go to the left hand sidebar and click the Country Settings under Your Kindle Account. Change your country to United States.

How to Convert PDF to EPUB, MOBI or HTML?

Few days ago, I talked about setting up and reading free ebooks on Kindle For PC. It’s a cool software actually because not only it provides a great interface for reading ebooks, it also has dictionary lookup and ability to highlight text and add notes. So you could use it for reading all the PDF books and manuals you have got, but how do you go about adding them to the tool?

By default it only accepts some formats, one of which being .MOBI. Hence we’ll need to convert PDF to MOBI and then add it to the My Kindle Documents folder. In this article we’ll talk about that, and also talk about how to convert PDF to EPUB and HTML. We’ll use a free software called Calibre and also look at an online tool called Zamzar that gets the job done.

Calibre is a nice ebook management tool that provides a neat interface for managing your ever increasing collection of ebooks and PDF docs. It also has PDF conversion features and can help you convert PDF to EPUB, MOBI, HTML and other such formats.

Kindle Content not available in Singapore

I love to read ebooks on my Kindle. But Amazon will not ship Kindle to Singapore or Malaysia as Kindle content is not available in these two countries also. Yet many Singaporeans are still buying the Kindle as SIngapore is a global market and Amazon cannot stop it from selling here. You can buy it at the Marketplace in Hardwarezone Forums or the GMarket. There are many sellers who have bought the Kindle to Singapore.

• Login to your Amazon Account.
• Goto Manage your Kindle or click here>>>
• Click Country Settings under Your Kindle Account
