I am really curious what the pattern is (if any). I bought my Kindle 2 in Nov 2009 when it first was orderable for Canada. I have bought a few Kindle titles but certainly not "a lot". I manually installed the 2.3.4 update for the Kindle 2i when it was released. "Full" Internet arrived in mid to late May; I definitely only had wikipedia access before that. I live in Toronto.

I don't think I'd use the WWW aspect of the Kindle much but it's very nice to have in a pinch. It was also be cool to get Calibre server talking to the Kindle ... but so far I can't get Calibre past the home router firewall. Then, when on holiday, I'd have access to my entire library.
