I highly doubt Amazon will remove the 3G. I am not a Kindle owner, but since day one of the Kindle the ability for people to own, use and buy books without a PC anywhere has been a big plus for the Kindle. Combine that with the Nook with its 3G, they'd be mad to remove it.

I can see a Kindle being offered with wifi though
