Kindle Paperwhite is also available on Suningโ€™s online store for users in six big cities, and users have to pick it up at Suningโ€™s brick-and-mortar stores in those cities. Amazonโ€™s counter was spotted in one of Suningโ€™s brick-and-mortar shops in Beijing.

The Kindle software began to support Chinese last November. One month later โ€˜Kindle Storeโ€™ along with reading apps and Chinese Kindle books were added. Amazon Appstore for Android, online storage service Cloud Drive  and developer program were introduced earlier this year.
