For what it's worth when I download a book to my Paperwhite 3 it never takes a full minute. But I'm not downloading 3 meg books. Most of mine are about 200k to 500k. Offhand I'd say a typical download time is about 20 to 30 seconds.

I'd try testing this with more normal sized books to see what happens. I doubt it'll matter but it's simple enough to find out.

If you don't come up with a solution pretty quickly I'd contact Amazon's Kindle support. They'll probably make you try all the things you've already tried all over again but if you're patient they'll either find an answer or replace it.
