Amazon Apps store arrives in Brazil in the coming months - Tecnoblog (Blog)

Amazon fired a communiqué stating that began pre-sale of the tablet Kindle Fire HD models with screen sizes of 7 and 8.9 inches in over 170 countries. The company also announced the arrival of the Amazon Appstore in nearly 200 markets. In a statement, Amazon revealed that its app store for Android “coming to Brazil in the coming months.”

Both models of the Kindle Fire HD are available on Amazon’s international store that sends products to many countries of the world, provided you pay the shipping and import taxes upon purchase. However, while selecting Brazil, the store tells you that the product can not be shipped to our country. This restriction does not occur in other Latin American countries such as Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay.

With the conversion of the dollar, the freight for the city of São Paulo (R $ 47.76) and import taxes (R $ 332.68), the imported model comes out for savory R $ 682.44.

We contacted the Ponto Frio, one of the dealer of the Kindle e-readers in Brazil, to verify that the tablet Kindle Fire HD also arrive to the country. The shop has not yet commented on the matter.

Amazon Appstore, which offers a free paid app per day, should arrive in Brazil in the coming months, which indicates that the Kindle Fire also must give the guys out here soon.
