I assume, but ask anyway, one can still not sideload non-B&N content via wifi.
In other words, can I download books from BooksonBoard via wifi, for instance?

Browsing was incredibly slick. The only issue was with pinch to zoom, which seemed to be a little finicky. The speed of everything was fantastic though - I was very impressed with how quickly it would load pages, and it was getting significantly better reception than the nooks sitting next to it.
I didn't see a wireless sideloading feature. I'd be surprised if someone didn't hack it in though.
I should have tried to download an ebook directly from a website, to see if you can save it directly - I've heard that's coming to the nooks themselves sometime, and if I had to guess I'd think that would work.
My guess - if you can access a website to download a compatible format, you're golden.
