I can imagine bringing Nook 2 into the store, reading one hour of something, enjoying a drink, maybe buying an ebook if it's any good.
So my questions are:
- How many people bring their Nook into the stores? I haven't seen any in the wild, only in captivity (display models).
- Do the Read in Store work well? Any limitations set by publishers?
- What happens if you root the Nook (or Nookcolor for that matter)? Do the Read in Store still work? Do the special offers still show up?
- Does the Read in Store or Special Offers work for Nook apps on Android or iPad? So instead of bringing a Nook I bring in a tablet.

My wife and I bring our nooks in about twice a month. We are bookstore junkies. when we first got our nooks it's was every friday LOL
Read in Store, I enjoy, the publisher's have put a lease on it. When it was first out, almost any book was available, but that has been trimmed. There are still alot of titles available and there is now a section when your nook connects to the BN's wifi that list's all the available title. It works well and saves them. I still have a bunch still on my nook color. I can only access them once I'm back in BN, for obvious reason. I like it and it's a great concept.
I don't believe the coupons and the read inStore works on the nook android app. but I've never tested it either, so I can't say for sure.
But it is one of the nice points about the nook. I love the freebies from the Starbucks Cafe and the coupons etc. it adds another dimension to the nook that other ereaders don't have.
