Thanks for mentioning that. I was considering the 3G version because I sometimes have poor wifi connection on my paperwhite in part of the house. But if there is no way to turn 3G on and off that defeats the purpose for me.

It's true that wireless is either ON or OFF, but the thing is, it will not USE 3G unless there's no viable wifi signal. If you put it in airplane mode, though, all wireless is off and it won't connect at all.

Yes, but I still have one "bar" so it's viable but really slow, and often I don't want to get up and move closer to get a better signal. I have the same problem with my phone and wifi and I just turn wifi off so it has to use the 4G LTE instead.
