Do you have a Macbook Pro running Lion that has VPN? and...
Do you have the ability to connect your Macbook to a "wired" internet connection using a network cable?

If so, you can turn your MacBook Pro's AirPort into a Wifi Hotspot, where every device connected to the Hotspot would go through the VPN.

I do this now in China, where I can connect my iPhone to Twitter and Facebook without using VPN configuration on the iPhone.

So, based on what I know, I figure I can still use my Kindle Fire overseas.
