That's interesting. I do not have a smartphone (or any kind of mobile phone - I'm a dinosaur!), so I wasn't sure how this Nook problem might relate to that. Now I see.

I agree with you and scoreman that they seem to be rushing these apps into production without much thought to the Nook itself. Maybe things will improve.
