Though the Amazon Kindle 2 uses the same E Ink technology as the ebook readers from Sony, iRex, Hanlin and others, Amazon's ebook reader is a bit special. It has a 3G connection built in so that, without having to hunt for a Wi-Fi hotspot or even muck about downloading books on your Mac then sideloading them to another device, you can shop directly from Amazon.
