Unless you configure your router you will not be able to use the Nook directly to purchase books,. I use both B & N & also Kobo to get books onto the PC & then load to the reader.
1) I use Hide MY IP and select a US IP address
2) Register with B & N with any US address
3)Install Calibre
4)get DRM removal tools from Alfs Blog
5) Load the plugins into Calibre per instructions
6) Purchase & download the book to the PC
7)Load to Calibre
8)Download the Metadata into calibre (summary & Cover)
9) convert epub to Epub, Under structure detection tick the box for insert metadata. (This will then show the front cover & summary in the ereader)
10) load to Ereader
11) BACK UP THE BOOKS TO ANOTHER HARD DRIVE
12) Delete the Book from B & N (Will stop the book showing twice if you connect wirelessly (I don't)

If you buy your books from B&N there is no need for steps 3 until 12.
Just buy your books from the B&N website using your PC (register with an US address and use a VPN), than sync the library on your Nook to download the books using Wifi.
Other good VPN's to use are Hotspot Shield (free) and AlwaysVPN ($8.50).
