For Kindle users in Asia-Pacific, here's how to get a hold of those classics without   paying the US$2.00 which Amazon charges.

The folks at ManyBooks.net give you the very same books (in their own words) "at the best price: free!"

Just pick a book, choose the Kindle format and download. To transfer to your Kindle, here's how Amazon says you should do it:


1. Plug the larger end of the USB cable into an available USB port or a powered USB hub connected to your computer.

2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the micro-USB port on the bottom of your Kindle. Your Kindle will go into USB drive mode and appear in the same location you would normally find an external USB drive.

3. Use your computer's file browser to drag and drop files to and from Kindle making sure to drop files in the 'Documents' folder on Kindle.

4. When finished, use your computer's undock, eject, or unmount feature to remove your Kindle.
