I sent my thing to username@kindle.com and downloaded it over WiFi with no problem. I put my own e-mail address as an approved address.
I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

Thrive to spite them
With the personal documents feature on the kindle I can read pdfs - like crochet patterns! They aren't in color, obviously but I can at least have them at my fingertips.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My cousin is telling me that a tech can't find the hookup on her iPad to get her online via cell service. What are they talking about? Do they sell iPads that can't be activated for cell service? If they do, would they then have models that need something external and can't support it? That sounds suspiciously like fragmentation.

Hey. New board.
They do sell iPads that are Wifi only. The cell-capable models are more expensive. There shouldn't be anything to plug in, for any of them - either they have it built in, or they don't.

Yes there is 3G service for iPad, but the setup is often in store at the apple store or AT&T/Verizon.

Okay, so this woman who's saying she can't find where to plug it in--she's full of shit. If my cousin's iPad can't get cell, she's permanently SOL. My cousin is being told she's missing a port or something.
Thanks.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
No port at all. You need to have phone service and iTunes to activate it.

Jessica,
re: your chrome problems, I think you need to download Chrome Beta. Which apparently is not the browser I was using on this computer. I'm downloading it now.

Okay, I'm annoyed by my Kindle Fire. I can't use a mini-USB cable to connect to it. WTF. How am I supposed to port stuff over onto it?

With a micro USB cable?
