I'm strongly considering the Kindle DX for the larger screen, but I also am curious about the refresh time on the Kindle 3. I don't think the DX has the new pearl epaper yet, so as a stopgap I want to get a kindle 3.

Should I buy the international 3G version, or the US 3G version? I hear that the US one works fine in Canada, and doesn't require hacks to get the web browser working.

Any advice appreciated!
