thanks for the detailed post.

As a proud pappa of a Nook could you elaborate on what was it about the Nook you found to be un intuative?

I do admit it does take a bit of a learning curve but I had mine down patt in less than an hour and was able to fly through things. It took me over a week to figure out my iPhone but once I did it was great,

But I am curious and please please please do no think Im being snarky here.

For example, If I put the nook in sleep mode while on the home page but what to read where I left off last in my book I was reading, I hit "Reading Now".

If I put the nook to sleep while on my page, it wakes up to the same spot.

If I want to search my Library for a book to read I go to "My Library"
I want to Shop for a book, I go to "Shop"

etc etc.

I am by no means a gadget guru so I always find it puzzeling when I hear that it is un intuative. I find it to be very easy and fun to navigate around. I love the touch screen. If you have a smartphone/blackberry. Then this thing is childs play.
