And Amazon does not partition the memory so people who don't buy books from Amazon are able to store the same number of books from other dealers as they would with Amazon purchased books.

BN is the only ebook retailer that I have heard of who sets aside for BN books and then other books.

And that is stupid. I can get setting aside memory for updates, I believe Amazon does that but not partitioning the memory so that people are inconvenienced if they chose to shop from a store other then BN.

And while it is a small inconvenience, it is an inconvenience. With the amount of memory available on the Nook there should be no reason for anyone to have to use an SD card due to lack of space.

Amazon does't partiion memory because it OWNS mobi. it's their own format.

And please spare us the " you can buy other books from other places" it's mobi, they are obscure athurs and titles or out of copyrite any can get. You can only buy from the major publishers from the kindle store.

Hmmm and here I thought having expandable memory and Sd Card slot was a feature, Well unless you are a kindle owner then when some other product has it , it becomes a liablity?
