The return and fail rate is alarming. - Any documented proof of this other than the people complaining on a board?
Even the USB connection is non standard, so you can't charge it from many 3rd party USB power sources. - I use either my Blackberry 9700 charger or my Samsung i8910 mobile phone charger to charge the nook fine. In fact, I can use my nook charger for either device. It's a standard microusb connector which (surprise!) is also used on the Kindle 2.

Oh, and back to OP's question, I never noticed it. But reading about it now, I'm sure I will .

yeah I had to laugh at the usb comment made by sarahsbloke, it's a usb mini to usb, you can pick one up at any radio shack, best buy and even walmart
