Cool beans. What's the catch? Is it free? How long will it be free?

  Instapaper's completely free. The only catch is that Amazon charges you 15 cents for any wireless delivery that isn't a book/periodical you purchased from them. So if you set Instapaper to deliver daily, it works out to a fee of ~$5/mo, ~$60/yr. I just set it to deliver weekly and the cost is negligible.

    Actually, from my understanding, there's only a fee if you have it delivered over 3G. If you transfer personal documents to your Kindle via Wi-Fi there is no delivery fee. If you transfer personal documents to your Kindle via 3G while inside the United States, the fee is $ .15 per megabyte. When traveling outside the United States, a fee of $.99 per megabyte will apply.

      This is correct. I have a Wifi-only Kindle and have never been charged for an Instapaper transfer.
