I guess the question is whether wireless is reliable enough...I was sort of swayed by the 3G argument.

She often waits weeks between downloads and my brother, who is often over.
Still going back and forth on form factor. I much prefer smaller (why I got hooked on the Sony readers early on). However, she is always telling me that she is afraid of losing/misplacing her Kindle

Since the controls are the same except for the keyboard, the user interface is near identical. If text entry is needed, there's a clunky virtual on-screen keyboard navigated using the fourway control.
If she's worried about losing it, get a nice bright cover (e.g. red). I'm sure there must be some about by now. Ah - and there are. How about something like
this, although I emphasise that this is just the first red cover I found in a google search.
