Right now, for Canada, it says:
Access Wikipedia via Whispernet on the experimental web browser. Access other websites like Google via a Wi-Fi connection. Blogs can also be downloaded via a Wi-Fi connection.
If Amazon is killing this feature in the K3 and going Wifi only for web outside of Wikipedia, I may as well just find a used K2i.

ChaoZ,
I think all the newly worded product pages put up today are confused.
A guy from Israel asked about the WiFi ordering he was doing and WiFi accessing of the Kindlestore. I looked up the WiFi (only) model doublechecking it was WiFi only. When I looked up Israel (and later, Germany) I saw that the product page for both of these talked only about WHISPERNET and never mentioned WiFi.
I've sent a note into Customer Svc for whatever good that might do but I alerted them.
