Why my Nook use GPRS for 10 min. after reboot?
My Nook is soft-rooted and setup to work with my local carrier SIM card.

I also removed the command, inside Nook, which checks for firmware update from B&N.

I haven't reboot my Nook for quite some time. Today I turned off and on my Nook and found that it started using GPRS/EDGE continuously for almost 10 minutes (blinking communication arrows). What did it do during this 10 minutes period?

That's what I guess; but 10 minutes for just a few books I purchased (and already downloaded) from B&N?? My EDGE connection speed is not that bad 8-).
