If you buy a Kindle from Amazon, it will arrive pre-registered. If you buy it from a store, then obviously it won't.

By radio you mean Wifi? Or there's something else?

Wifi and/or 3G, depending which model of Kindle you buy.

But is it possible to have in the second part of 2011 a device that can't hook up to open networks or known hotspots just because the user hasn't configured it? Cheapest, dumbest, ugliest chinese made network switch loaded with indian software can do that. Wouldn't a gadget advertised as user friendly AND at its third generation do any better than that?

You misunderstand. It CAN connect to any WiFi network, but it WON'T connect to an unknown network unless you tell it to, any more than your PC would. Once a WiFi network is known to the Kindle, it will reconnect to it automatically (if the Wireless is switched on, of course).
