3G isn't charged, you can connect the device to any Amazon account from anywhere. Great that you have a US account linked to it, you can actually avail the Special Offers.

That's true. But you might still come up against geographical restrictions in the books you wish to buy. Many titles in the US store are only available to customers that are physically in the US. Having an account with Amazon in the US doesn't help with that.

thanks you two!
Istoner's reply was what I wanted to know...
If I could use GSM internet in India for free without she needing to open it and register there.
And it seems, I can indeed.
