I have a Kindle 2i...though the browser is clunky (kind description), it is more than adequate for picking up email. I use Yahoo! Mail and was in the Dominican Republic in June and had no trouble getting my email -- Amazon does NOT charge for piking up and responding to email. Having the 3G was essential as there were no wifi hotspots. I personally would not get a Kindle without 3G if I was travelling to anywhere off of the beaten track as wifi hotspots are not that easy to find and the 3G coverage is very good. Joystick is easy to use. Hope this helps!
