sjkevin - All the reputation I can give for you! (It's not much though )

I'm not one to mess around with commands and such through ADB, so I bought Root Explorer and sure enough, there were all those pesky .apks hiding in the /data folder. Copied and pasted everything into the /system/app folder (after figuring out I had to mount it as R/W), rebooted, and boom! There we are. Thank you very, very much.

I don't have my Nook with me at the moment; I'm just going from memory, so this could be wrong. But, I think the folder you're looking for is /data/app/. I think that ordinary users do not have permission to read it, only root can. So your file manager will not be able to read anything from it, and it will appear empty, due to lack of permissions.

If you use an app like root explorer, or use adb (e.g. "adb shell ls /data/app"), you should be able to access that folder.

But, I don't have my Nook in front of me, so this might be wrong.
