hmmm. I'm not sure what you mean by "I don't have to pay for" related to internet. The internet access on the Nook STR is wi-fi, which might be free for you -- but just depends on what you are using as an access point. McDonalds' might be free, an airport might not be.
As for rooting, I've owned the Nook classic, Nook Color, and Nook STR. Only tried rooting the Nook Color, and wasn't really impressed with the outcome. Ended up overwriting the whole firmware and installing CM7. Now, I like CM7 on the Nook Color, it feels like a regular android tablet. But I don't think you'll get anywhere near this experience with the Nook STR. All that rooting will do is give you the ability to add some apps, but how those apps work on the device is a totally different question. Don't expect a tablet-like quality on a B&W e-ink device, I don't see it happening.
