I had originally thought that Google books would support this functionality, but for some bizarre reason it doesn't. SOOOO disappointing!

Thanks!
you're welcome (but realize i'm new to the 'droid experience as well; it's just that backing up and 'upgrading' my nook was a *lot* easier using noogie.img and touchnooter-1-6-24.img)

1. to restore, boot your nook using your noogie.img microsd, then use

dd if=name_of_backup.img of=/dev/device_name_of_nooks_mem bs=1M

(or a suitable Windoze utility; i only allow Linux and OS X in the casa)

2. dunno - but i'm sure Amazon has a solution for you :-) (new 'cloud' feature intro'd yesterday)

3. after rooting, i use the 'normal' reader on the Nook - it works seamlessly and Calibre is a fabulous multi-platform app for host-managing my book collection
