My workaround for the 3G disaster was to provide Amazon with the US adress of a relative in Florida. (I plead for "not guilty" as I was acting in self-defense) So, I thought, they have what they need to fulfill their whateveritis-contract with Vodafone Germany.

BUT... it worked only for a short time. Then the message appeared to contact Amazon support as I obviously travel abroad and need to check this by phone or mail. Seems Amazon is making trouble all the time, guess what, I could install "Every Word", but the next item (the other game) was restricted a second later. And I'm talking about wifi access, not 3G! What are they protecting? The Kindle from being used by its owner? They have NOTHING regarding costs providing at least access to the German Wikipedia.
