I too was wondering how sooth the Wikipedia browsing is. I have an iPad and I do most of my reading on it, so I don't really need a new reader but... it's a little big. These new Kindles look quite portable. And if I could browse wikipedia in the wild it would be a nice bonus.

I just wonder how usable it is. Is it a wikipedia app, or do you use it through the web-browser? Can you browse any content through the browser via the 3G connection, or do you need to connect to wifi for that? By that I mean, is the 3G connection only for downloading books? I also heard that you can tap a word in a book and bring up a quick link to the wikipedia definition.

Also, can you take notes? As in, notes unrelated to your book collection? Store them in folders and stuff like that?
