I am concerned about this too, as I just bought a Kindle 3 - should arrive any minute by UPS to my son's house in the US where we are currently visiting. But, 9 months of the year we live in Panama. Can I order books for my Kindle 3 in Panama with our US credit card [we use our son's address for the card]? Will I need to down load books to my computer first and then transfer them to the Kindle while in Panama? I just read that Kindle is coming out this month with a new, much more expensive International Kindle that can download books anywhere. Did I make a mistake buying the K3?
