I just bought the Sony 950 and love it. I have not gone thru everything but indeed I believe I read that the 3g is only to access the book store.

I have always been a fan of the Sony eReader and just replaced the prs 700 with the 950. My opinion is that none of the others can compare to the quality (sorry if I offend anyone but I have looked at all of them and even bought the nook color which I returned)
The Sony bookstore was rough at the beginning but I think it compares with the best now and don’t forget you can get ebooks from the library.

1. I do not plan to surf the web via the 3G, but I would like to know if I can use it in the car to check gmail. I do not expect to respond by email using 950; I just want to check incoming emails (and this is only about once a month)

2. Can my daughter access facebook via the 950? Again, not to post anything; just to read new posts.

3. I do not have WiFi in the house and that will not change. Is it reasonable to think I can use the 950's browser to access the public library for downloads, or for reading newspapers?

4. I have read that the 3g-ability is limited to only accessing the Sony Store.... is that true?

Thank you -
