Not so much anymore.

you can get a monthly data add on starting at £5 and average price is around £15 with the modem free if signing up for a 18 month contract. This is pretty comparable, or even better then data prices in the US right now.

So Amazon, if they out a GSM/UMTS based radio in the kindle should probably be able to get a decent deal.
