The Galaxy tab is set to 240 dpi and the NC is set by default to 169.3333 (odd, eh). Many users have changed the dpi to 200 or 220; but the downside is that the b&n software doesn't scale very well. Other software (Aldiko) scales fine. The higher dpi makes everything "bigger"; and the B&N menu bars already fill the screen, so making them bigger will cause them to run off the sides of the screen.
You may want to experiment with the LCD density apps available in the Market; but if you want a permanent change, look into modifying the build.prop file (it is really pretty easy).
I have experimented with different dpi; and when using the B&N reader I have determined that the 169.3333 is a "sweet spot" for the LCD screen used in the reader. A dpi like 200 or 220 causes some fuzziness with smaller fonts. I think that if you go all the way to 240 like the tab, and use a larger font, you wouldn't have a problem, but I like smaller fonts; and the the B&N people did appear to have calculated the sharpest dpi for the resolution of the NC screen.
