To get documents delivered directly to your K2 or DX (no wifi) you are going to be charged a small fee. And if you send documents to your *@free.kindle.com, they go to your Amazon account's associated email address... and you still need to transfer them to your Kindle via USB cable.

So while there are still some times that I use my Kindle's email address... with K2's/DX's, there's no; "Woohoo!! This is really frickin' handy, free, and great!" feeling. But yeah, I can see K3 owners really digging it.

I'm seriously crushing on how you always bring clarity to a conversation

I have a K3 and I'm in a perpetual state of "Woohoo!! This is really frickin' handy, free, and great!"

I hardly ever send ebooks to myself (I like how Calibre puts everything neatly in Author folders (I'm anal that way ) so I almost always use the USB cable to transfer books). But for online articles, I use SendtoReader (for stand-alones) or Instapaper (anything I want in serial format) to send them to my K3 and it's awesome. That's how I get my daily fix of Art & Letters Daily, Give Me Something to Read, and Longform.
