Im not sure whether you read it somewhere, but you hit the nail on its head - Im from Czech Republic.
Major cities are Prague, Brno and Ostrava, those are the three biggest. The 3G support in general is limited quite a bit here (I think Ostrava isnt even covered in full yet) so EDGE wouldnt bother me too much. It would bother me, though, the 3G network is growing.
In some other thread I read that 3G connection doesnt really give you full internet, though. Only access to Amazon site and that wouldnt sit right with me, not for the extra bucks I would put in 3G version, if I were to buy a Kindle. Is there any truth to that limitation and if so, any hopes for removing it any time soon? I wonder what could be the reason behind such a "nerf".
