German Kindle Paperwhite 2 for US customer in Germany

Hi,

I am a US amazon customer living in Germany and I am interested in getting the new kindle paperwhite 3G. Obviously, it would be a good idea to buy the device from amazon Germany if I want to send it back or for repairs.

However, I have some questions about that:

- Can I use my US account with the german firmware/hardware?
- Will the X-Ray functionality and the Goodreads functionality work on the German model?
- Will the Wikipedia lookup functionality connect to the English or German Wikipedia?
- Can I change the German firmware to the US firmware?
- Is there still free internet surfing via 3G for US customers?

Thanks and best regards,

Jens
