Hi I've ordered an amazon kindle 6" wi-fi but now I'm slightly concerned as to whether I will be able to use it very well because I run my computer from a 3 mobile dongle and wondered if this is going to cause a problem for me and also do I need to buy a battery charger for it -they are selling one for £12.99 on amazon, do I need to have one and can I get one cheaper if so, thank you ?

You should be able to connect it to your PC via its USB cable, which will also charge it. There should be cheaper plug chargers around than the one you quote.

It comes with a usb cable to charge it and also a plug with a usb socket to charge from the mains.0

You don't get the USB wall socket with the new Kindles, but can just charge them via your computer.
Don't pay £12.99 for a wall plug from Amazon if you want one, I bought one for mine for £2.95 (delivered) on ebay, like this one (CLICK ME)
It's just the same as the amazon one, but without the logo.0
