Thanks for the clarification. Kinda silly that I had to get that answer in an ereader forum and couldn't find any specific reference in any Captivate forums. Of course, I haven't actually joined any Captivate forums in order to ask the specific question.

Thanks again.

Edit: I went ahead and joined one of the Captivate forums (required in order to search) and find that yes, indeed, the app Marketplace is available via wifi. It is Android updates that cannot be done over wifi.

So. The absence of 3G is NOT the contributing factor to no Marketplace access. Prince Hal and boswd probably have it right in B&N's decision is to keep the NC primarily an ereader and not just another Tab wannabe.
