News International and FT Group have launched The Times and Financial Times on to Amazon’s (NSDQ: AMZN) clunky Kindle e-reader, even though the gadget isn’t available in the UK. Priced $14.99 (£8.04) and $9.99 (£5.36) per month respectively, the digital editions come at a considerable saving over the dead-tree editions and are delivered wirelessly to the device each morning over Amazon’s US-only Whispernet service. The Independent was already available on Kindle, along with The Irish Times, Le Monde, Les Echos and Shanghai Daily. Via Kindle Reader.
