From my experience, it depends as much on the WiFi router and the network behind it. At home, (except for the Touch) my devices connect first time. At work, where there are a lot more visible networks, a lot more people using the same WiFi router, it is a bit less certain.

I worry that it will connect to some open WiFi server and download an OS upgrade. That happened to two of my readers and the 4.x OS has a less useful browser.
How is it less useful? And what firmware are you comparing it to?
