Anyway, this Nook thing is driving me bonkers. If anyone else has run into this, please chime in. I'd really like to get it worked out.

Thanks again!

Widows and orphans are different for a small screen vs a paper book. I do feel that you don't need them for a small screen.

Bring your nook with you to try out the book. I have no idea why it would look so odd on the in-store nooks yet the sample looks great.
