And I mentioned that earlier (incomplete/broken downloads).
Generally not an issue with a good wifi connection. I've even downloaded 10-15MB files. I think there's a time out, though. Also, no retry/resume if the pipe gets disconnected during transfer. I know it's pretty much impossible to download those large files when I'm just connected to my smartphone's hotspot.
I expect the "experimental browser" is pretty much what's used by the on-device Kindle Store as well. It's very basic but it's not gonna screw up a simple HTTP GET without a reason (typically wifi-related).
