This may be diverging a bit from the OP's intent of this thead, but I just want to second Daffy4U's comment. I use Calibre while traveling around the globe to pull newsfeeds and create newspapers for my Kindle 2. If I have an internet connection - which I usually do either in a hotel or office - I can get them. Not wireless, but a very reliable, fast (assuming a decent internet connection speed), easy to use, and cheap.

I decided long ago that there is nothing wrong with a USB cord if it speeds things up or makes life simpler. As a result, I put books on my K2 in the US both wirelessly and through the USB connection, depending on where they come from. Internationally I find the Calibre / USB approach to be ideal. I hope this is helpful to some.
