Thanks Jeff!!! :wave: Having a great time!

Ok, bought one today at Best Buy at Florida Mall, and am setting it up tonight (after we get back from the Yachtsman's Steakhouse, after changing our plans because of possible thunderstorms) so we can set up the USA account thingie, so we can then use it in the UK easily :thumbsup:

OK, we are trying to set it up, it won't accept the passcode that we use to connect to the hotel's wi-fi. A bit of searching has revealed that apparently a Kindle doesn't accept a Passcode but needs a WEP code. The guy in Best Buy was adamant we had to set this up before we left the USA or it wouldn't work. Is this right? :unsure: I don't want to spend our last couple of days trying to connect this thing rather than going out to the parks!!!
