Real download speed of Kindle "3G"?
I've been browsing with my K2 over 3G tonight. There is absolutely no way it's going at 3G speeds. I'm not talking about the actual time to render a page, just the download time for a page. It's about the speed of my EDGE first gen iPhone. I get full bars on my K2 so I don't think it's a signal problem. I do notice that the 3G symbol only shows in the top bar when I hit the menu button. Even turning off images, it's painfully slow compared to my first gen iPhone.

Does anyone know what the real speed is? It maybe over the 3G network, but it must be throttled to a lower speed.
