So the Nook obviously has wifi capabilities, and all I have to do is be in or near a tower to use it just like having a tower nearby for your cell phone? Is that correct. It would work out really well if a neighbor has access across the street no?

wifi is different than cellphone coverage, you need a wifi signal provider, most cases that would be a wireless hub in your home attached to your broadband internet source.
You could sneak onto your neighbors if it the signal ia strong enough and not encrypted, or they give you the security key to get on
