Maybe. Eventually.

But there are a couple things to consider about a Wifi based Kindle. The first is that by using Wfi you give up the neatest feature, which is the seamless internet connection.

The other point you should consider is that you can achieve most of the Kindle's functions with a device that runs Mobipocket Reader and has a Wifi card. There are any number of devices that can do this. I have an old HP Jornada 720, and it has replaced my Kindle.
