Because if it's free like Wifi, then I would get the 3G, otherwise,if I have would have to pay for it through Sasktel, then I wouldn't bother as I don't need it for business or anything like that, it's just personal use. New technology is confusing...........haha. |
If you use the wi-fi you need to either have a wifi network in your house (which you would use with your computer to surf the internet so you would be paying for that already) or you can use the Kindle's wi-fi at a wi-fi hot spot.
If you use the 3G there are no fees for it. It's not like a cell phone. Right now Amazon pays for the 3G usage.
the Kindle will try to connect to a wi-fi network first and if it can't find one it will connect to the 3G.
