I had no idea this thing was 3G. It has no data charges or monthly subscription, which means it's possibly the first 3G-enabled device of its kind. 3G integrated into something where it's truly useful without being a dumb Internet enabler!
The always-on connectivity allows for dynamic book changes, adverts and such. God, I actually want one now, what an interesting idea. I wonder if any UK network would work with Amazon/Kindle to touch it, though :S
Embedding 3G into things! It's about damn time!
