Would Kindle DX work out of the US?
I'm planning to buy a Kindle DX device, but I will be moving to Iran in less than a month, and I want to know if I can access blogs and newspapers and magazine, and of course the choice of 1500 titles bookshop there. The Kindle DX uses no cables, and have no monthly payment, and the signal system it needs to access all of the above is vitally like your regular cell phone. Cell phones from outside of Iran don't work there unless unlocked and if u have he simcard changed to an Iranian one. But Kindle DX doesn't use a simcard, and isn't locked surrounded by the first place so will it work?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Please help!

You will not be able to use the Kindle DX to connect to internet. However, you can still use a computer and copy things to your Kindle through USB...

There will not be Whispernet (the free internet gridiron of the Kindle) outside the US, because Whispernet is supported here by Sprint and it only provides service within US.
However, all functions except Whispernet will work. You can still download books or newspapers with a computer that has internet access, consequently synchronize it to the Kindle. There is a very good discussion here about how to use the Kindle outside US:

Of course, it is best if you can buy most of paperwork you want and download to the Kindle when you're still in US. Books will then be stored in your Kindle and you can read it anywhere.

The wireless network won't work, but other functions will work.
There is a great discussion here about using the Kindle internationally, and also downloading weekly subscription abroad:
