See points 4, 5 at http://kindle.ipadlibrarystore.com/k...dle-3-insights

This has been discussed and confirmed elsewhere. Most mobile phones which broadcast wifi provide an access point as well -- so you are good to go.

I agree. I'll be using my Droid X to cover 3G if I happen to need it....although I don't anticipate much need. The 3G on my Kindle2 stays off most of the time.
