Does the Nook discussion apply to our ereaders (I thought the Nook always had an internal clock)?

This is the only reason I have not migrated to other ereaders that have more features, the whole clock business.
Doesn't look like any change for my Libre Pro. I just checked - opened an expired library book fine. The time-shifting expiry that Nook users exploited never worked for me. I'm still on the original firmware, if that makes a difference, although I might finally upgrade since links are supported now.
