No, it doesn't default anywhere. It stays on whichever I put it on.

I'm not sure why you would want to do that because the K3 defaults to Wi-Fi. If there's a Wi-Fi network in range it will automatically connect. You won't have to switch anything. One of the reasons that Amazon introduced the Kindle 3 Wi-Fi is so that they don't have to keep paying 3G bills. And I really think that they expect most Kindle 3 3G+Wi-Fi owners to use Wi-Fi most of the time so they won't be footing quite as large a 3G bill for those as earlier gen Kindles. Amazon improved the browsing experience by offering Wi-Fi and Webkit because people wanted a better browsing experience. So they're giving it to

The places I am likely to want my K3 to sync are actually places where wifi is not available - or what's worse, is only sporadically available. Like on the train.
So I hope 3G is sticky if I'm downloading or syncing on it.
