More Nookish Questions

I'm thinking about getting a Nook for the 3G capabilities. I'm about to be travelling a lot and although I'll have my laptop with me, I won't always have wireless access in places.

I'm wondering how well it works. Can I access any webpage with the 3G? My friend just has wireless and I was able to access DW although it was squished in all the wrong places. Any problems that you've encountered? Mostly, I would want to read my email, read DW & Tweet with it.

Feedback would be welcome. Thanks

OK, I can't speak for the nook, but for Kindle (in this case, K2, but applies to K3/whispernet based on anecdote), dreamwidth mobile works like a charm most of the time, Gmail's mobile interface works, and the full blown is.. well, useable, but NOT a preference in my case. Twitter works as well, though you can't click on links in a tweet and get them to work. (It has to do with the fact it tries to open in a new window/tab, and there is no place for another window/tab to go, and amzn is stupid about just redirecting it to the main window like anyone with some sense would do...)
