John & others
I'm aware that the "kindle" is wifi only, but can't tell whether the "kindle keyboard" has two versions: wifi or 3g.

Subject: Re: kindle
The 3g is an option however with the new kindle (Basic) having been released it looks like Amazon is currently restricting the keyboard model to the 3g ...
Hope that helps
