This is a forbidden topic (the 3G part). It violates amazon's TOS and is considered illegal by the site moderators.

Sharing a wifi connection is still "tethering" and does not distinguish WHERE the internet connection is coming from. Even IF you were sharing a wifi connection, if the signal faded and the kindle switched to a 3G connection, then it would be sharing the 3G connection.

It is too risky to do on a kindle that is registered with amazon.
