Hey guys, I was hoping that some of you had some experience with Amazon Kindles. I'm about to buy one and I'm wondering whether I should shell out the extra 50 bucks for the kindle with 3g, or if it's just going to be a waste.

Thanks and of course +K for helpful comments.

3G will let you download books anywhere, without it you use your computer. You decide if you need it

Does anyone have experience with using a kindle in the place of college textbooks? If so were all the books you wanted available digitally?

if you use that for college books, can you see color diagrams? cause if you can't than I'd say thats a bad idea.
