What I mean in “full access to the web” is browsing sites in color taking advantage of all the cool stuff the web offers. It’s hard to enjoy browsing in black and white and with no support of Flash.

I don't want a touch screen - there would be tons of fingerprints on what I'm trying to read. Also, you are right that wi-fi would be helpful, but I don't know what you mean when you say "full access to the web is still not possible." Sure it is. What do you mean? I can surf the web all I want with 3G. Finally, you CAN share books with friends - all you have to do is temporarily register them to your account, and give them the book. The Nook's lending is very very restrictive - you can only lend a book ONCE, to ONE friend, for only 14 days.
