Hello Kirari and welcome to MobileRead. It looks to me like you've done all your homework and have figured out whether the Kindle will fit your needs. I'm a proud owner of a Kindle 1 as well as a Sony 505. I'm tempted -- really tempted -- to pick up the Kindle DX, particularly for carrying work documents in PDF format.
I'm one of those who rarely turns on the wireless on my Kindle. I download books to my PC and then move them to the Kindle via the USB cable. I do, however, get the occasional sample which can only be delivered via the Whispernet connection. As far as I can tell, that's the only thing you can't get if you're outside the USA.
We're glad you've joined us. As Zelda mentioned, there are some terrific books stored right here at MobileRead. Enjoy!
