I want to nail down the difinition of Whispersync. Does it refer to synchronizing only or is also the name Amazon uses for 3G downloading of books? If I turn off Whispersync, can I still download via 3G?

Something else I want to understand better. I keep reading I can get charged for downloading some items via 3G. Exactly what items trigger the charge? If I buy a book and download it via 3G, is there a charge (other than the price of the book) for that?

BTW, our first (of 2) K3 went to "shipping soon" status this morning.
