If you're only the latest firmware, and have installed the Kindle Services update, it might be worth while to switch on the 3G again and see if the problem has resolved for you.

And.... Connection! Success! Time set properly! Device re-registered itself. Hooray!
Holy cow! I had been on 2.5.8, but installing the latest Services Update fixed my 3G! Experimental web browser works now, but more importantly, Amazon sends me books and documents again. I had given up on 3G, considered my DX a sideloading-everything device.

Thank you so much.
