Yes, you can download the samples using the iPhone app. However, at the moment, there seem to be syncing issues between mobile apps and the Nook ereaders. There is a separate thread on that discussion. Hopefully, B&N will fix it in an update soon. I think that you will be disappointed shopping using the Nook iPhone app because it is not as nice as the Kobo iPhone app "Discover" and "Browse" organization. I do not really like shopping on the Nook iPhone app at all unless I know specifically what I want. On the other hand, accessing the Shop directly from the Nook is a much better experience and organized more similar to the Kobo iPhone app shopping. I do like the on-device shop very much. In other words, I think it would be an improvement to your current process. You would probably be happy shopping directly on the Nook rather than having to purchase on your iPhone and then sync back to the device (assuming they fix the syncing process). Hope that helps!
