Since I prefer the touch swipe for silent page turns, it was a bit of a surprise. Frankly, I think I have only used the right page forward to page through the Library & Document lists. When I do use the buttons in a book, I use the left side.
I got my Nook as part of the Father's Day promotion, with the $50GC, and it came in the new all-paper box, so I thought I was part of the "new" batch of Nooks that would avoid this problem.
Has anyone else had a "newer" Nook crack? |
That's aweful. I'm trying to hold off for an announcement from B&N to see when the new nook is coming out. One of the main reasons is I don't trust that they actually fixed the cracked button problem. This post is confirming my wariness to by the current version. I just hope they really do fix this problem in the 2nd generation model.
