It's been quite irritating, since it can only be downloaded via wi-fi! So the file sits there until I can get to a wi-fi hotspot.
Anyway... The other day, I asked my daughter to set up her 3G phone as a wi-fi hotspot. I guess she has an app for that. And it worked! I was able to download the stuck personal documents to my Kindle via her phone.
Hey DreamWriter! This is the second time you've given me valuable info! I never thought about using my phone as a hotspot for the Kindle! Thanks!
