I tried the small Nook, gave them a phony email and just loaded to the SD card. Reader didn't feel right, too small. The original Nook was just right. Touch only doesn't bother me. I have a smart phone and the Acer tablet.

Is it true if you don't use wifi, you can just use it as a reader? I don't need updates, I search for books on a computer, and I transfer via changing SD cards. Can you just input a fake name and addy and turn off wifi?

I have a wifi only tablet that has all on it, but it can get heavy, and the screen has reflections and glare.

If it sorts either by author or alphabetically, I'm good. The Nook had shelves and I never used them.

I have all books, music backed up. I figured I paid for it, I'm keeping it, (I don't share)
I prefer to buy and download to computer rather than device.

Thanks
You never mention a Kobo device, do you have a question on Nooks or tablets? If so there are other forums that address issues with those devices.

If you are asking the questions in your third paragraph, of Kobo devices in general, then the answer is yes.

Luck;
Ken
