*BUMP*

Ok, I didn't realise I was such a complete computer dummy until today.

I've just bought Nanna a Kindle for Christmas and so far it's taken me 3.5 hours to figure out how to get the book from my computer to the Kindle because I wouldn't have the faintest how to use wifi. I know my laptop has it - but no idea how to connect, it keeps asking for a password and have no idea whether any of the found connections are even mine :roll:

Also, when I started, there were 5 archived dictionaries, one being italian. Now I've tried to download it and all of a sudden it's gone.

This thing is about to go through the **** window :?

FIIK, Ive got a tekstra wireless 4G thingy. Upon further investigation, I dont think I have wifi access at all.

Luckiky, I've found a way to download books using usb cord.
