And it gives you the epub page number! That means if you use a e-ink epub reader, you can at least easily move between devices by using the Go To page functionality in nook and your device. Sure, not as nice as over the air synching..but its the next best thing.
I couldn't find a way to delete the side-loaded epubs from the nook app. So I went to the /nook/MyDocuments folder and deleted them outside the app, but the deleted books are still showing up in the nook app under the MyDocuments filter.

The epub page number is great, but every time I open a side-loaded epub in the nook app it opens at page 1 instead of the page where I left off. And there's currently no bookmark support for the side-loaded epubs either. (I read on a B&N forum the reason there's no bookmark support is because they rushed out the side-loading feature to make it available as quickly as possible and will add additional features in later releases.)
