Good for you! I don't find the lending library very useful, since you only get one book a month, but it is better than nothing. Enjoy!

You'all will love the PW. Having had every version so far, I rate the PW as the best kindle.

Luckily my US PW seemed to be very slow, so I've cancelled and ordered one for delivery in the UK! I think I can live with the reviews I've read about the lights etc., but nice to know a return will be possible if I need one.

Do a smartphone with the kindle app makes you eligible to library lending ? Or do you have to own an actual kindle ?

It's about time Europeans are able to take advantage of PRIME.
