Re: The Amazon Kindle Thread
If you buy stuff from the Amazon site - even if you 'buy' something that's free - it immediately gets downloaded for free over 3G if you have it and have a signal, otherwise when you connect by wifi or USB.

If you get the content somewhere else - say a pdf from Project Gutenberg for instance - then you get 2 special email addresses. You email the stuff to one of them and it gets automatically converted to mobi and added to your kindle.

One of them is a free service - the download happens as soon as you connect by wifi or usb. The other goes via 3g and you're charged a fee. I've never needed to use that so far.
