basically amazon has to pay sprint .12 per meg of data the kindle downloads. that is why they charge you .15 per meg to email pdf files to yourself. imagine what would happen to amazon of every user started to download 100 megs worth of pdf files every month without them getting any compensation? 100 megs is very reasonable considering the size of most pdf files. It would cost amazon 12 dollar a month per user who did that. is there any financial way to support that? no, the 15c per meg covers amazon's bill sprint gives them, plus server costs.
