I recently bought a nook color and updated it to 1.1 and I have wifi issues at home and at work. It is one finicky device, and I think anyone buying it should be aware of it. Luckily I found an old router and now use it alongside my new router. With the old router, it is flawless. Pandora streams perfectly now and the internet is very responsive.
The main problem still is that I will end up in many places where the nook color will struggle to connect or stay connected to the internet. Personally I like the device so much I can live with it, but for many this won't be the case.
As an ereader, it has many good points. You can take notes, highlight text, email quotes. Taking notes alone is worth it for me. I just read a book, and can review all of my thoughts about it through looking at my notes.
I am waiting to receive my accessories in the mail. I used ebay to buy my cover and gelaskins to buy my skin for it. I think barnes and nobles way over charges for their accessories, but I have to wait and see if what i bought is comparable.
Good luck
