That's not correct. you can use any WiFi access point (be it your home, Starbucks, ...). You can browse the B&N books over WiFi, and you can as well buy them over WiFi provided there are no geographic restrictions, or provided you have a valid US address in your profile. You can as well use the built in web browser for casual stuff, not the most convenient thing on eInk, but useful nonetheless.
