As usual with these agreements, Amazon can always screw Kindle owners any time they want. So far they are not doing so.
Expecting to get free, unlimited internet access forever from a $400 device is slightly unrealistic, IMHO . To call charging for such a service "screwing" users is, however, somewhat unjustified when Amazon tell you up front about it.
