Fastest and easiest way to delete docs?
I am going to upgrade to the NEW NSTG and would like to clean up my library on my 1st Gen Nook before registering my new Nook. I went a little "nuts" when I first got it and sideloaded a bunch of books.
All my B & N stuff will be saved at their site, right? What would be the quickest way to delete the books in my documents file? Marie |

Use file manager to delete.

I think the easiest way would be to connect the Nook to your PC via USB and then use Windows Explorer to browse the directories and delete the files you side-loaded.
Another, even quicker way would be to go through the procedure to restore it to its initial state, which is detailed in the documentation (I think it is in the unregister area). |

If I unregister the device, will my B& N books still be there?

They will be deleted but, as you said, you will find them in your B&N account on the website.

As Alex says, you will lose all your books, including your B&N books. But as soon as you reregister it or register any other Nook device (including Nook for PC), you get all your b&n books back.
