Hi,

I live in the UK and adore my Kindle DX, which I can sync only via USB.

I'm trying to wean myself off reading confidential work documents on my smartphone before I go to sleep.

I never get round to syncing up feeds via USB so I figured I'd buy a Kindle 3 wifi to do this.

I'd love some help with the following question:

Is emailing docs to @free.kindle.com the only way to keep a Kindle WIFI in sync. Is there any dropbox equivalent hack, allowing the Kindle to keep in sync with a remote folder? Is it even remotely feasible to build something like this? Ideally I'd like the document files waiting on the device, rather than having to download them via the browser, which I realise is the other option.

Thanks very much in advance for any wisdom.

Jenni
