If you want to make sure you can buy books almost anywhere, even when you can't log in to a wifi network, the Kindle 3G is the one you want.

Just wanted to chime in on the extra benefits of getting 3G. I ended up buying a second Kindle with 3G and it's been soooo much more flexible all round. Came in very handy during a recent visit to the UK when, more often than not, I was unable to get access to wifi. And no roaming charges!
Although, of course, if you can get your existing unit fixed free of charge, that's an even better outcome
