Internet on kindle 3?

Awwwww. Say goodbye to the old days of «pluging in» your kindle or «not being able to check your facebook without reading text-to-speach sherlock holmes at the same time»
Thats right. Now, you can run high speed downloads straight to your kindle from amazon.com. I write these from my kindle. But i seriously doubt that its going to be a main source of internet ay time soon. so heres a list of problems with the kindle internet.
*SYM trouble: On the kindle, there are no buttons for :<>"? or,.«»)(* or even1234567890. to get to those, you have to select them from a long list of symbols from a speacial button on the lower left corner of the keyboard. So typing in your email takes longer than just useing your computer.
*Trouble displaying non-mobile websites. The kindle runs on an electro magnetic ink that amazon boasts to help with reading in sunlight. Unfortunately, this also slows down loading internet pages. So Www.facebook.com wont work, BUT m.facebook.com will.

But If you want to try it, from the menu, hit menu>expeiremental>launch web browser.
Good luck and post comments about what you thought.
