Can't pre-order the NSTwG.

"You must have a credit card billing address within the US or its territories, including US Military sites, to receive this item. We currently do not support non-US billing addresses."

Oh well.
oh well :(

Waiting for a price drop on the NST, now that competition is so rife.

I heard that theres going to be a new nook being released with windows 8. Hopefully they will upgrade Nook's ereaders as well.

I look forward to some exciting competition between nook and kindle paperwhite!

I know Kindle cannot do it.......

I used Adobe digital edition to read off a free book which in turn is an Epub... i tried converting to mobi via calibre but it was flagged as DRM

I just got a new nook Simple Touch. Heehee.

Now how do I load ebooks from PC to the nook.

I borrowed one Ebook from our library. And I use Adobe Digital to open it. I can read the book from my PC.

Now how do I load into my nook?

I'm able to connect the nook to PC and the AD can detect the nook. I tried dragging the ebook file into the nook directory but I can't see the book in the nook?

Did I miss anything?

Which directory shld I drag the book into?

It's simple. Here are the steps.
1. Launch Adobe Digital Edition (ADE)
2. Connect Nook Simple Touch to PC
3. On left panel of ADE, just above bookselves, you can see the "Nook" device
4. From ADE Bookselves, drag the book to "Nook Device Icon"

That's it.

I just bought a Nook Simple Touch and I am loving the screen! It's so easy on the eyes compared to my tablet. :s12:

Absolutely! If not for the issues I've read about the Glowlight version I would have gotten that one. For now, I'm hoping this device will last for a few years. :)

In fact, feels like silky smooth paper too.
Just attach a $1 (available on ebay) small clip light, no matter how dim, will do fine when reading in dark.

The battery life is more amazing, 1 month no need charge.

I actually have one of those clip lights at home which I use for reading paperbacks. :)

For the battery life, I have yet to find out how long one full charge will last. So far, for 2 days of use (about 2 hours of reading per day), it has gone down 18%.

1 month was based on not reading, screensaver on.
(left it on last time, forgotten I had this)
