Will a Kindle work in Dubai

My sister-in-law is going to Dubai in October for 4 months, she is looking to buy a Kindle to take with her and was wondering if it will work in Dubai. Does anyone have any idea, thanks.

    They use the same style plug as the UK if your asking about charging it? I cant think of any reason why a Kindle wouldn't work in Dubai.

    If it's the 3G kindle then as long as there is a good phone signal then it will work fine to download new books. The UAE does have restrictions on web browsing though so the browser may not work correctly.
