changing region with a kindle

Hi

I tried to post this in kindle FAQ but it wouldn't let me. Smile I live in NZ so use the Amazon.com site for kindle books. I'm going to the UK for a month next week and want to buy books there. Right now my kindle won't let me buy from amazon.co.uk. Will it change automatically as I physically change region or do I have to do something so I can buy books in the UK?

All help appreciated!

Hi Janet,

To buy books from Amazon.co.uk, you will need to have a .co.uk account and billing address. Assuming you don't, you will still be able to buy from Amazon.com even if you are staying in the UK.

I do have a UK account, but it won't let me use it. It might kick in when I'm in Europe. But, I will panic less knowing that I can still use the Amazon.com account! thanks for that,
