Amazon is due to start shipping the Kindle DX with global Wirelesstomorrow. 

Since Amazon first announced the global wireless connection for the 6-inch Kindle ereader a little over three months ago Kindles are now available in several countries that were not included in the original Kindle Global release.  These countries, which now do get Kindles, include Argentina, Canada, Chile and Thailand.

Refurbished Kindle DX ereaders with US wireless don’t seem to be available at the moment,  but there are a few sellers of used Kindle DX’s with US wirelessat Amazon.  Currently the lowest priced of these is only $40 less than getting a new DX though,  so unless you really wanted the Sprint version I’m not so sure if that would be a very good deal.

This also seems to be true of the Kindle 2; there are no more refurbished Kindle 2 ereaders at the moment,  so I am presuming that Amazon has sold out of their stock.  You can buy used Kindle 2′s at Amazon,  but here again they are only $30 less than a new Kindle Global.
