The thing is that you need a data plan for an iPhone to work. This doesn't require anything. (I assume they have something similar to the Kindle) edit: nevermind. The store page shows this: "Annual Update Subscription $29 for two updates per year Receive content updates for your WikiReader delivered to your door." It seems to say that the content is loaded once and for all? Surprising… so, it doesn't require a subscription but the content is not live.

The subscription is only for them to mail you a microsd card. You can download the updates for free and load it yourself. http://thewikireader.com/update.html http://thewikireader.com/update.html
