My K3 (Keyboard) still can use 3G anywhere, its not restricted to wiki and amazon store as my Paperwhite is. The first version of the PW.
I believe what JSWolf is talking about is the limitation of the amount of data one can use each month. I think at some point they put it on there as some idiots would hook up their kindles with the free 3G to do things other than normal browser usage. Was it 50GB a month? Or 20? I can't recall anymore as its been years that was talked about. Don't think they ever advertised that or send us users any info on that. Most normal users would never hit that max anyway.
I used that browser in the past on the road stuck, pulling up a map and info. It worked. I did not have a cell phone in those days yet.
I have used it a while back when my internet went down and I couldn't find where I put my phone at the moment. It happened to be there. I checked on stuff then. Yes it is slow, but not that slow if used on certain sites and with stuff turned off as the OP says. I can see how its nicer to read articles and stuff like that since it would be e-ink. I don't like reading on my tablets much either.
