Does anyone know if you can sync a Kindle using a USB cable or does the Kindle have to be connected by wifi? My Kindle broke down here in FLK and needing to get a new one but don't really want to shell out for the 3G one if I don't have to.

I'm not sure if you can download books to your PC from your Amazon account, but if you can, then try using Calibre to transfer them from PC to Kindle.

https://calibre-ebook.com/

Edit: Similar to MMs' reply above. Didn't follow the link initially.... Calibre is easier to use (I find) and you can also transfer open source books too.

I didnt buy a kindle, just a cheap tablet that runs the kindle app. All my books (over 100) are loaded onto this. The bonus is I can also play games if I want to. I quite often syn kindle on my computer with a usb cable. I can also download from amazon.
