I can answer some of these from my poking around. I have a Kindle DX.
1) Yes, the browser proxies through amazon.
2) I'm not sure what you mean but you can pretty much pull up any website you want.
3) Not sure about this question.
4) Yes, each device is tied to your amazon account.
5) I think someone inside Sprint or Amazon would have to answer this.
6) There are hacks to attach it to a PC in USBNET mode.
- yan 17y agoHm are you happy with your DX? I've been seriously considering getting one.
- blasdel 17y agoYou misinterpreted most of my questions :/ 2) I'm asking if the device can open a direct socket to a host on the public internet. Your answer to (1) implies that the device might not be able to talk to anything but amazon's (potentially non-HTTP) servers, but it might just be for MiTM reformatting (like Opera Mini) 4) Of course the device is tied to your Amazon ID. I'm asking if the modem's permanent radio ID is a part of that 6) That feature is for avoiding the use of the modem, not bridging it! It's only a first step towards tethering. By default it lets the Kindle use the PC's internet connection, not the other way around (which is all that I care about)
