agree on the x. in fact ive said to the powers that be that there is no reason for it not to be there already. it would have made transitions easier and some people would still like to swipe/drag it to close but others would like open the extra commands (short swipe from top or right click) and find the x in the corner.
there are many very good video tutorials on windows.com and if they didnt include them to save storage space they should have at least included links to them or a tile that took you to the page. there is that bit of "UI Navigation" tutorial when you are first turning it on but its not easily found later.
there is a free win 8 book in the Nook store but unless someone tells you it's there you dont know to look for it. when you sign in the nook app with an account you can see it right away as it shows you a few free books. but you cant see those without first signing in with an account. it should be easy to peruse the Nook store and see it and the other free selections as an enticement to open an account.
