Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, Fire HD now on sale in China

After months of delays, Amazon has finally put the Kindle Paperwhite and Fire HD up for sale in China.
The Paperwhite with Wi-Fi costs $138 (849 yuan), and the 16GB Kindle Fire HD will sell for $245 (1499 yuan). For the time being, the 3G model of the Paperwhite and all other Kindle Fire are not yet available and it's unclear if they ever will be.

Amazon has always said they are planning a full lineup launch for the nation.

If you are looking to purchase the device, Suning is the exclusive retail channel, adds the company.

Amazon has been actively expanding their presence outside of their high-traffic areas, including opening a store in India that so far only has books and DVDs.
