I am going to print out this thread and send it to the publisher:
"Due to copyright restrictions, certain Kindle Titles are not available everywhere. If the country or region displayed is incorrect, you may change it by clicking "Change region"."
I could circumvent that via using my US proxy or wait until I go back for Christmas, but I really wanted a book to read on the plane ride tomorrow. And you know? Screw it. I'm going to buy from one of the numerous publishers who is willing to take the money I am attempting to throw at them.
