I just received a very nice email from a CSR-Digital Support person from B&N named Jessie regarding my inquiry about not being able to put side loaded content on the home screen. It is as people suggested, reserved for BN content only. Their reasoning is that it can be reset by BN.com or in a store depending on promotions, etc. Something strange and he wrote that it would wipe out any personal content from that area. Sounds fishy.
What I liked about his response wasn't the standard fare above, it was that he acknowledged that this function/feature could very well end up appearing in a future update. Whether that ever happens remains to be seen. My request is being logged and hopefully enough other people complain as well.
If it happens cool. If not, oh well.
