Pocket-Lint: Amazon has announced that it is launching the Amazon Kindle Touch and Kindle Touch 3G in the UK, following the debuts of the touchscreen-enabled e-book readers in the US last year.
The new UK models will be identical to the US versions, but will feature some software tweaks and bug fixes before an official update hits in the near future.
Pocket-Lint: It wasn't all that long ago that we reviewed the new Kindle. As you might imagine, we loved it. This is, after all, the best known and best designed ebook reader on the market. It's simple, cheap, and pretty much single-purpose. What it does, it does very well, and it does it for £90.
So what does the newly launched in the UK Kindle Touch bring to the table? There are two versions, one sporting 3G, the other a Wi-Fi-only model. Both have touch-sensitive screens and support for both text-to-speech and audiobooks.
Engadget - Amazon is now shipping preorders for its Kindle Touch and Kindle Touch 3G in both the UK and Germany, a week ahead of schedule.
