title: using amazon api with python
body: <p>it seems that amazon has changed their API, i get error from Python:</p>
  
  <pre><code>id = "..."
  pas = "..."
  produit = amazon.API(id, pas, "fr")
  produit.item_search("playstation")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and i get this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>AWSError: AWS.MissingParameters: Your request is missing required
    parameters. Required parameters include AssociateTag.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>and i've tried the example in the documentation and it's the same:</p>
  
  <pre><code>produit.item_search('Books', Publisher='Galileo Press')
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>AWSError: AWS.MissingParameters: Your request is missing required
    parameters. Required parameters include AssociateTag.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>i've found this:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Changing the example to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>api = API(AWS_KEY, SECRET_KEY, 'de',ASSOC_TAG)
  </code></pre>
  </blockquote>

  <p>any ideas? or the documentation should be updated?</p>
