However, even assuming that there is a W-CDMA or even a GPRS version of the Kindle for the UK/Europe, surely this would mean it needed a SIM card to access the network. Does this mean that Amazon will have some mega deal with a cell network to provide the connection so it "just works", or will Kindle users all have to shell out for another cell connection plan to use the Whispernet?

The documents said it was EV-DO/CDMA a year ago. I assume/hope that they've set up contracts with a major carrier to allow for downloads. I'd hope that they are covering the cost of that in any subscriptions/downloads.
