 |

Please, no lowballing - not anxious to get rid of it. I am not willing to sell for less (I paid more than 400 to get it here in the first place).
The device itself is pretty immaculate - although about year old (bought it back in February before the announcement for Kindle 2) I've taken good care of it - can give you the e-books I have.
The battery life is very good still - with wireless off (I don't know why you'd have it on in Korea) can go for at least a week - haven't really ever had it on for more than that w/o recharging.
For the steep price, it's a device that will pay for itself within a matter of months - especially with the price of books in Korea.
And yes, you could buy a netbook, or a touch, or whatever device that does the same thing or more... I have one of each.. and it just doesn't compare.
Why am I selling? Want to upgrade to a DX. So, for anything less, I would rather just keep the device...
Face-to-face transaction only. I live in Cheonho (4 stops N of Jamsil) - but willing to meet halfway in Seoul. I don't have pictures of it but am willing to text pictures from my phone if you are interested. Oh, and comes with the standard white charger (it accepts 220 v, but needs a plug converter, I'll throw that in), the white USB cord, and original leather folio.
Edit:
Books on the Kindle right now (ones I've been reading / read recently) - they will come with it unless buyer does not want them.
Niffenegger - The Time Traveller's Wife
Lord of the Flies
Moby Dick
Gaiman - Fragile Things
Vonnegut - Breakfast of Champions

| Good price. The local Iriver is 330,000 if you're lucky, more often 360ish, and the Sony Reader is like 450,000. |

A quick search yields 332,000 right now - wish people would provide links and/or other forms of evidence. Anyway, price slightly reduced T.T
Last try, if it doesn't sell by the end of the weekend, I will take it off the market. I guess the DX will have to wait. |
