Got my Nook from Barnes & Nobles and love it. It has wifi capability, can browse the internet, and can also use Verizon wireless (cell phone signal) for free.

I decided to get the e-ink rather than the color screen, because the color screen is back lit like a computer and the e-ink is easier on the eyes to read. Reading is why I purchased the nook. Just like a book, if you want to read in the dark, you use a little book light. If I want a device to browse the internet, then I'll get an ipad or notebook, not a watered down tablet.

So far, all the books I've downloaded have been FREE either from the library or from google/books! Love that.
