Can You Disable The Internet Capability With The Kindle Wireless Reading Device?

There are some cheaper ones on amazon that I am thinking of purchasing simply for my 500-600 PDF books, articles, reports, etc.
So I have no need to access the internet/wifi, and no interest in doing so. Is there a way to shut it off decide I decide to purchase one?
Or, is there something like that product which is simply used for reading PDF documents?

    Yes, sure. You can turn the wireless off the Kindle.

    Yes, you can turn off wireless of the Kindle, and the battery can last for longer time on single charge.
    As you can see in the above update, the Kindle 2 can read PDF natively now.
    I love my Kindle 2 very much. Since you are considering to get the Kindle.
    Finally, in case you don’t know, Amazon has just put a price slash on the Kindle 2, and it is now selling $100 cheaper than the price I got my Kindle, and it adds in international wireless access and native PDF support… So take the chance if you want it.
    Hope it helps :)

    All ebook readers support PDF, so your choices are wide open. The Kindle doesn’t do a great job of it, quite frankly, the Kindle DX does better.
    You might consider the Sony Touch because it can Zoom in on PDFs and loads them quickly, but if you don’t like the touchscreen, the Kindle might be a better option.
    It kind of depends on what type of PDFs you’re talking about. Ones with complicated layouts and graphs aren’t going to work very good on any 6-inch ebook reader, but if they are text-based you’ll have a lot better luck.
