Hi,

While the new $150 WiFi Nook is very appealing, what capabilities am I losing by not going with the 3G version (beyond the obvious answer of 3G)?

1. Can I still use the Web browser and access RSS Feeds on the WiFi-only Nook?

2. Are the speeds greatly reduced when downloading books and Feeds?

3. Are there Nook functions I'm going to lose without the 3G access?

4. Are there obvious disadvantages of the WiFi-only Nook version?

I apologize if this has been explained elsewhere. I haven't been able to track down these answers in the forum.

Many thanks!
