LIR: Jax. Yes, some hotels do, but my point was that between your cellphone (with wifi hotspots), hotel wifi, public wifi, etc. The need for 3G on

the Kindle is less and less. So much so that I'd consider it extraneous for my needs

Can you surf the web on the 3g version using 3g? I used a 2nd gen wifi and the web browser was an "experiment" app. -- nm - lileve Jul 29, 08:04 1
- It's listed as an "experimental" app, but you can surf the web. - Ender Jul 29, 08:13
The plus side of the 3G is that it's free internet for life. When you're destitute and homeless you can still surf the web in greyscale. -- nm - Ender Jul 29, 07:50
I think that really depends on where you live and travel. I live in the country and there are probably only 2-3 places with wifi near me - decline Jul 29, 07:48 7
- we have neighborhood wifi that I can sometimes get in my apartment, which is pretty cool. -- nm - loosilu Jul 29, 08:00
- I won't say every, but lots and lots of McD have free WiFi (and Panera/Starbucks) as well as many local places. I see the signs up - oblique Jul 29, 07:49 5
  - I think there is 1 McD within 30 minutes of me. We do have a couple of starbucks though :) -- nm - decline Jul 29, 08:00 3
    - See, this is your golden business opportunity. You can be the only WiFi hotspot for MILES! -- nm - oblique Jul 29, 08:01 2
      - I'm sure all the horses will appreciate the free internet access :) -- nm - decline Jul 29, 08:02 1
