    Be careful guys. I bought one for my Dad in currys over Christmas. Had to bring it back as amazon prime wouldn't work nor any of the tv apps. Amazon told me over the phone it was because I was in Ireland and it wasn't supported.

    So unless you plan to use it for other uses, stay away!

    non of the EU amazons will deliver a firestick here. In the firestick thread I was saying earlier you might be able to find an EU version of currys who might send one here.

    You could use forwarding services for amazon but it will likely end up expensive.

    I think Amazon are dropping the prices at midnight.

    I'd recommend you look at android forum to see how wonderful these are. You are correct, useless in Ireland if you want to use it for Amazon services. But some small effort unlocks a lot.

    I've just been able to order a fire stick lite to my Irish address. Might be cancelled, but I hope not. I already have a 4k but need one for another room and I don't need the 4k or TV controls. I'd signed up with Addresspal to try and get one that way but said I'd chance my home address and it worked. Fingers crossed, delivery date is mid April so could be cancelled yet.

    Just checked and it seems all fire tv devices, today anyway, are shipping to Ireland and there's spring discount as well.

    Yes, they changed it this week. No discount on the lite though, and mine is due tomorrow. Huge improvement on mid April!!

    I was very impressed with delivery times. Ordered a Fire Cube last Wednesday (24th) and it arrived Saturday gone (27th) - 3-day delivery even though it told me it wasn't due until 6th April.
