BE and WiFi
I just got an iLiad Book Edition (had the Sony 505). Was was wondering if I made a mistake in not getting the Second Edition with WiFi. What do you guys use the WiFi connection for, other than web browsing? Am I missing something by not having it? Hopefully someone will come up with a hack to use the USB slot for a WiFi stick.

I haven't had it for long, but so far, i've found it extremely convenient for syncing the files and downloading newspaper. Definitely beats using a cable or a card reader

I use it for syncing files with my PC. You can do the same thing with a wired network connection or a USB connection though. There's nothing extra that the wireless really gives you other than convenience. It's up to you how much that convenience is worth.
