What luck switching print subscriptions to digital?

Now that I have my Nook Color, I'm eager to switch my print subscriptions to digital subscriptions and put that bag boy to work. (I'm mostly reading ebooks on it so far.)

However, I'm detecting an amount of... let's say reluctance... on the part of some of my magazine providers to do the transition. I have contacted two magazines and asked them to transfer my print subscription to a digital subscription, and neither has responded in the last 3 weeks (not even to say "we can't/don't know how to do that); another magazine is in the process of rebuilding a digital presence, and will not say when they will be ready; and another, as far as I can tell, has no digital version at all, and is not publicly planning one.

So I'm wondering how the rest of you have fared in switching from print to digital magazine subscriptions? Have any of you simply canceled your print, waited for confirmation, then activated a digital subscription? How many of you have gone through B&N, and how many have gone through the publisher directly? Are any of your magazine publishers stonewalling you?

Report your progress here.
