Thank you very much eddiek and Tiersten.

I wrote to Amazon and got an answer almost inmediatly (which is good) but they actually didn´t answer my question (which is bad). It was simple: CAN I BROWSE INTERNET FREELY WITH YOUR 3G IN ARGENTINA?

Answer:
Hello,

I'd love to help you, Internet access using the Web Browser through Whispernet is not available in most countries outside the United States when using your Kindle's 3G connection, however most customers can access Wikipedia. These restrictions do not apply when accessing the Web Browser over a Wi-Fi connection.

You'll find helpful information on our Using Kindle If You Live Outside the United States Help page (http://www.amazon.com/kindleinternationalsupport).

I hope this information helps. Thanks for your interest in Kindle.

Thank you for your recent inquiry. Did I solve your problem?

If yes, please click here:

If no, please click here:

So what they did is tell me to look in the FAQ! %$@#!!! I guess I´m going to press NO YOU DIDN´T SOLVE MY PROBLEM. Off course I checked the links and no one talks of Argentina there.

I contacted a guy who owns a Kindle 3G here and he told me he´s got free access (which is great). I guess I´m gonna go with Kindle 3G then.
