New Nook owner. Just found Calibre (using PC version and Vista) and will be using it for ebook management. I was also setting up some news sites to download and have come across a problem I have not seen an answer for in the forum. As an upfront disclaimer, I don't know if this is a Nook problem or Calibre issue...

I downloaded 2 periodicals (UTNE reader and Linux magazine). I can read the epub versions fine on my PC because I can click links which then open in a browser (for UTNE) or in Adobe (for Linux Magazine links) but when transferred to my Nook, I can't seem to "click" or select the links to get the articles (or expanded articles in Linux Magazine). Is there a simple solution to get the links on the Nook to open?

I have been using EPUB as the output format for the Nook and it is WiFi enabled and connected to a network.

Thank you and any help would be appreciated!
