Our son is a Marine, finishing up his training in Arkansas. We sent him a Kindle for his upcoming birthday. He left books behind in Pensacola as it cost too much to ship them home when he couldn't take them with him. We went with the 3G, as getting WiFi is not always possible for him.
Kindles, are great gifts for the military in the family. And from now on, we think we can gift him a book instantly, instead of buying it and then having it shipped. Thank you Kindle (and I suppose Nook, et al)!
Has anyone else sent a Kindle to a military family member, or is serving in the military and has a Kindle? How as that worked out for you? Does the 3G work overseas?
Thanks!
