Question for you trook freaks out there.

I have a Classic, but I would imagine it would be the same question for the Color as well.

Is there any way to set up some sort of scheduling or cron task on the Nook? In a dream world, I would have have my Nook wake up at 6:30 am, open a wi-fi connection, and download all of my new Calibre files (from recipes).

This way I could have Calibre run the recipes starting, say, at 5:30 and be off and running.

Not having installed Trook yet, is there a way to manually download a bunch of Epubs (an entire OPDS) from a directory? Either local folder-share or a dropbox account...

Thanks,
Sped
