The point is - all 3G standards are CDMA (/WCDMA) based and "CDMA" by itself means nothing. It's not a standard, it's a method
Further point is - the standards and transmission methods are completely irrelevant to Kindle's model. It's the business / marketing model that makes it what it is, and that's simply not achievable in an international / multy-country / multi-carrier setting.

True, and the future seems to be moving toward LTE which is realy a merging of GSM and CDMA technologies. We will see what the future brings.
