Hello all,

I recently bought a Nook Simple Touch when I was in LA last weekend. I brought it back without activating it and now I'd like to activate it.

What are my options?

Some extra info:
1. I have a US-based credit card with US street address.
2. I can set up my MacBook to use VPN to work through a US IP address (any free suggestions for VPN service?)
3. I have an Apple Time Capsule (cannot work as a VPN server).

Can I set up a B&N.com account from a US IP address and then activate via USB connection to the MacBook (i.e. without using the nook's wi-fi?)
