yep pretty much, most of what I've read says the same thing http://www.peteducation.com/article....&articleid=947
Pretty much exactly. :D Turtles have adapted to living in/near water, while tortoises have adapted to storing water and not needing to be by much water.
No clue over here...I have wondered that quite often though!
