And yet when I go to amazon.co.uk or amazon.com they aren't advertising the new version as available for purchase. One thing Apple gets right is that you can buy a new product as soon as it's announced.

Exactly. I don't even care if they're not selling it yet, at least have an informational screen up. I just went there to look up the specs on the new Kindle Paperwhite (weight, mostly) and the product isn't even mentioned anywhere on their site.

No you can't. There's often delays in highly desired products, not to mention they stop their entire storefront when doing product launches ("We'll be right back!", but I won't since I can't order it right now). At least I can still use Amazon.com to order things.

  "We'll be right back!", but I won't since I can't order it right now Yeah, you will.

    Yeah, you're right. I can't quit you Apple!

  Do you really jump to do a multi-hundred dollar purchase on impulse and then cancel when you have to wait an hour?

Yea, that was weird. But if you search for Kindle Paperwhite, it shows up. I just ordered the 3G one.

  It's now on the front page, product at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007OZNZG0/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007OZNZG0/ The previous model is now cheaper too (USD 69/89 with/without ads). PS. Good summary appreciation at http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/06/amazon-kindle-paperwhite-hands-on/ http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/06/amazon-kindle-paperwhite-...
