Hi

This is a repost.Didnt look like original actually posted.
Also wasnt sure which forum to post to.

Im pretty new to ebooks so these may seem like simple questions

Ive not had time to actually READ because of issues with NookSimpleTouch update to v1.1.0

Can Nookbook I purchased from BN be converted to
1. Kindle format
2.Sony format

The book in paper format is heavy (1700pp) and difficult to take with me

So, I purchased a Nook Simple Touch ereader and this NOOKBOOK after using on of the ladies in my class.

When my NST updated to v1.1.0 I could no longer open the book It would show error "Activity reader not responding"

After hours with BN phone support as well as going to BN they were able to replicate issue and said this is indeed caused by 1.1.0 update

So looks like Ill have to return NST for Kindle or other device.

I wouldnt have minded buying another copy to use on those devices except it is $17.

Especially since when already purchased from BN and worked great on NST until 1.1.0 update

Im trying to find options before the Best Buy return deadline of 1/24

Thanks!
