O.k., I may not be the brightest bulb in the box. But I'm not totally burnt out either

I bought a refurb wifi Nook from B&N for my sister for Christmas for $99. They emailed to apologize because the Nook we ordered was sold out. They would be sending us a wifi/3G instead! Very nice.

I charged the battery and played with the Nook briefly before wrapping the gift. The wifi worked great. But I saw no indication of 3G. The shipping document says: Cert Pre-Owned NOOK 3G (290503376703)

So, how do you know if your Nook is 3G? Is it printed on the case? Are there menu options? I saw wifi menu options but nothing for 3G.

Just wondering.

thanks,
John
