The Best e-Readers Compared: Kindle, Kobo, Nook and Reader Throw Down (Switched)

Thanks for your response. I think you and @starskeptic are right...

I live in the Netherlands and 3G coverage is good here. I travel a lot for work - mainly within (Western) Europe, but occasionally to the US as well (New York, Miami). No problems with 3G coverage there either.

But then I was thinking... what will I be using WiFi/3G for? To buy new books. Well, if I plan a little, I can easily do that from home, where I have WiFi. Why need 3G then?

But after giving it some more thought, I'd probably be using WiFi/3G for a lot more than just buying new books/browsing the Kindle Store...

There are more and more hotels these days that offer free WiFi, but at airports etc. WiFi hotspots are never for free (except for some rare exceptions)... so having 'free' 3G will definitely solve that problem :-)

Ok. A graphite Kindle3 with WiFi and 3G it will be...

Thanks again!
Jackie

Sep 1st 2010 5:41AM hey there,

thanks for the review. now I want that Kindle even more!! :-)

the only thing I still haven't decided on it whether the 'free' 3G is worth the $50 extra... any thoughts on this anyone?

thanks! jackie
