Hi everyone,

I am considering getting a kindle mostly because of the browser. I do a lot of research on the web, mostly text, and its killing my eyes. Do you think that the kindle could be a solution to this. The main things that would make it worthwile are:

a way to turn pictures off when browsing,
viewing pdf's online in the browser or being able to easily download them,
speed of the network.

another thing: do you get charged for browsing on amazons 3G network? there is no wifi for thee kindle (too bad).

please let me know your experiences other web researchers.
