The reader is great except you cant use it until you register it. Went to the library and couldn't get on their wifi to do it. Nor could I use macdonalds where they have the at&t hotspot they promised would work. The nook wouldnt let me do it anywhere but a Barnes and Nobles store so I didn't get to use it for almost 2 weeks. Then I made my first purchase of an ebook...1 book...and they double charged me. once through barnesandnoble.com and again through barnesandnoble/marketplace. They appoligized but wouldnt be putting the money back for 5 days. Since this was cash money they took off my debit card I was just out for days...wonder what would have happened if Id bought 10 books? The nook seems to work great now that I can use it, but using barnes and noble for you ebooks might not be the best idea. They admitted they were having a problem with the double dipping and were trying to fix it. I had it happen 2 years ago when I ordered on line to have paper backs sent to me. So it hasn't been fixed in 2 years:( But I like the nook!
