Question Does the UK Kindle browser work in most of western Europe?

I am debating between the wifi and 3G. The only reason to get the 3G would be to lookup stuff when outside the UK (since I would pay roaming on my iphone)
I have never used the 3G functionality of my kindle 2 since I always load books via the pc (personal and from Amazon)

How well does the browser work outside of the UK? Are there roaming charges for browsing outside the UK?
Thx

There are no roaming charges. I believe (and I'm sure that someone will correct me if I'm wrong) that the browser works throughout western Europe.
