Also, can it browse Windows shares (SMB protocol) on the LAN via WiFi?

I am VERY excited about this reader, and if it lives up to it's specs I will probably gift my PRS-600 and get one. This seems to be the perfect complement to my Blackberry; I want something I can read and write with without interrupting my email, IM, phone, etc.
The screen is 6" E-ink. It's shiny, but not clouded like the Sony Touch Edition.

I don't have any Bluetooth gear to test, so I don't know what it can connect to.

There are 3 security options under Wifi: WEP, WPA-Enterprise, and WPA-PSK. (I'm not sure what the last 2 are, exactly.)

It can probably use SMB protocol, but only if someone wrote an app for it.
