I've recently bought a wifi PW2, upgrading from a Nook ST. I love the PW and I love being able to send books to my Kindle just by emailing them.

I'm still finding some things confusing though, like what is WhisperNet and WhisperSync, are they the same thing?

More importantly though I read previously about there being a charge associated with emailing books to your account but I don't appear to have been charged for anything I've sent. Is this a 3G only thing, my Kindle is Wifi only which suits me fine?

And finally, being based in Europe I've no idea if I should be getting the latest software upgrade or even how it's applied, does it happen OTA without any input from me?
