Question A Question About WiFi
I know that the Kindle has its WhisperNet to download books automatically, but is this an always-on WiFi connection?

What about the Nook and others that advertise WiFi capability? Does that mean that you can connect anywhere, or do you have to be connect via your own home wireless router or a freee hotspot? Or via a connection through your own cell phone?

The locales I'm usually at in the course of the day aren't in the area of any free hotspots, so I was wondering if there is any point in getting a WiFi capable one if there's nothing to connect to.
