Does this work with the 3G Kindle?

But for the combination of a Kindle and Calibre, it's really nice. E.g., start up Calibre, it churns away to produce the day's magazines and newspapers you specified and e-mails them to your free @ kindle.com address. No need to have your Kindle turned on then. The Kindle e-mail service waits until later, when at your convenience, you turn on your Kindle and then it delivers your magazines and newspapers.
I'm posting this OT Kindle wireless response to correct information I gave you in a long-ago post where I agreed with you, when I was just getting familiar with Calibre's automatic wireless delivery. I thought then that a Kindle had to be on at the same time as when Calibre was working. So the only difference seemed to be plugging in vs. turning on wireless. But I was wrong about the need for a synchronized connection.
Right now, I'm at my computer and started Calibre, watched it assemble all my Monday magazines and newspapers, and then quit Calibre. My Kindle is somewhere else, turned off. Later on, when I turn it on, it'll get all that content delivered automagically. A real nice convenience IMHO. But it only applies to Calibre set up to do the free Kindle delivery. (Thank you Calibre for being so wonderful.)
