Lost in all the hoopla that is IFA, Amazon has announced that the Kindle Paperwhite will soon make its way to the UK.

The new model is a slightly better than the older one, which UK users had to wait months for it to finally arrive. The update has brought a lighter screen, a faster processor and a more sensitive touchscreen.

If you fancy picking up a new Kindle Paperwhite then you can do so from October 3, which is a week after the US launch.

The Kindle Paperwhite will be available from £109 and you can even pre-order one now.
