Hi All,

I haven't received my kindle 3 wifi + 3g yet. It's in the mail...

I want to hear from my fellow canuks if the following two things are possible to do. Please do not quote the site or I read you could or I can't see why you couldn't. Ok I know I sound rude but I'm not trying to be :-)

I want to hear from someone who has tried it in Canada (not a us customer that came to canada not sure if that would make a difference).

Can you email a txt file to the name@free.amazon.ca and receive on your kindle by wifi without pluging in the usb and is there a cost. I'm not talking 3g hear either...

Also, does web browsing (ie lets say mobile weather network or a site like that) work in canada using the 3g or not assuming I know that I am in a 3g area? This way when I go camping, I can look up the weather once in a while. no more surprise hail storms...

Thanks in advance,
Sylvie
