Any idea how could I buy content there? I have friends in the state who could purchase the content... any way to send it over to a place outside the states?

EVDO doesn't work, but it's got USB. Alfredo Octavio: Unfortunately Amazon.com does not let you buy ebooks to download on a PC. Still, reading TXT and DOC or PDF documents converted to PRC (using e.g. http://www.mobipocket.com/en/DownloadSoft/ProductDetailsReader.asp) works pretty well.
