Unfortunately, new nooks are very difficult to softroot and you should only undertake it after reading everything, including the warnings, and nookdev. That said, the problems with the new content are better with softrooting but you will still need to check for new content as mentioned above. Otherwise, softrooting turns the library into an entirely different device with non-B&N search and sort and display features way beyond the crippled B&N software.
Calibre will translate almost anything you want into epub which is what you would need to do for almost anyone else as well since it is hard, if not impossible to find anybody supporting all the formats.
You should be able to store a ton of titles in the root memory while getting a micro card. I was fortunate to have added most of mine with adapters so switching back and forth is no big deal. Two Gig will hold 3000 plus books and that is beyond the current limit B&N will support (sorting craps out above 1275). nookLibrary from nookdev will support 3500 or so. Currently, 2Gb cards are currently under $10 delivered so it could be worse
