I hardly ever play with the network features. I read. I like being able to look stuff up on the fly or get a new book right away. That's all I use the Internet connectivity for. The vast majority of the time, the wireless is off. As a reader it actually does work really well. The big buttons everyone complains about make it really easy to page turn quickly and seamlessly. I'm not thrilled with the look of the design but the rest of the functionality is so great, I find myself not caring. Still, when I want to look something up right now vs getting up and going to the computer interrupting the flow of my book, the Whispernet thing is sweet. The free samples combined with the ability to get the rest of the book right away is addictive.
