Alternatives with 3G?
Are there any Ebook reader other than Kindle and Sony's Daily edition that has 3G?

I believe the new Kobo Touch does as well.

Really? The technical specification on Kobo's web site doesn't say so:

The Nook Classic has a 3G version but I think it is getting harder to find.
I think that the Sony 3G only connects to the Sony store. To use the browser on the 950 you use WiFi. |

But certainly now I wouldn't trust them at all. They seem totally unable to provide a secure website, and clearly don't learn from their mistakes. |

The 950 (and its predecessor, the 900) have only ever been sold in the US, to the best of my knowledge. The other models (currently the 350 and 650) are sold internationally.

950 in Canada works only with WiFi, 3g does not work at all.
