Set this to “0” (ZERO) if you don’t want any charges ever. TIP TO AVOID 3G CHARGES OR TO MINIMZE THEMĪt the Personal Document Settings page, there is a Maximum Personal Document Charge section, where you can specify “ Maximum Charge Limit“
That’s the only ‘catch’ to the 3G service - the sending of personal docs to the Kindle, emailed via Amazon servers. NOTE: If you have no WiFi capability and you don’t want to pay a 3G fee for personal doc emailings, then you choose Option 1 above. But ‘3G’ delivery of personal docs isn’t free. With 3G, we are almost always connected, no matter where we are. If you don’t have a WiFi network at home, then #1 above is the way you’d more quickly put it on your Kindle rather than wait until you’re near a WiFi network. accept the personal doc on your Kindle3 when you are connected to a WiFi network somewhere.

With a Kindle3 (these models have a WiFi component), you’d normally want to get the document via WiFi (instead of 3G), as it’s free to you for the sending of personal documents to Kindle via Amazon servers (because Amazon doesn’t pay for your WiFi access - they do pay for any 3G cell phone network access).įor WiFi-sends instead of 3G, then, you email a document for your Kindle address by addressing it instead .Īmazon will send an email to your normal-correspondence email address (the one you registered with Amazon), and the email will include a link to your completed file, which you can: USE THE KINDLE 3’s WIFI ACCESS INSTEAD OF “3G” WHISPERNET THEN. Outside the U.S., that’s 99c per megabyte of a file. If you send - or if anyone whose sending-email-address you approve sends - a personal document to the address, the document will be sent by Amazon servers to your Kindle over the 3G cellular network and, in the U.S., that is 15c per megabyte of a file. You can enter, into the box labelled “ Approved Personal Document E-mail List,” any email addresses that you want given permission to send documents to your Kindle. GO TO the Personal Document Settings page. You need to specify which delivery-website-SENDing-email-addresses are approved for sending documents direct to your Kindle via the Amazon servers.
