A couple more questions....

Just looked for the 840 at XDA-developers.com and it did not come up.

Is anyone working on unlocking this unit so that it could be either dual booted to Android or totally converted to Android?

I went down this road with both my original Nook Color and HD+ and totally (and quite successfully) converted both to full Android tablet status with the able assistance of the XDA crowd. Have elected to leave both my LG G3 and gPad 8.3 stock so far. I did jailbreak my Kindle DX.

Would it be a possibility with the 840 if someone far more well versed in the arcane magic needed to do this got involved?

Also, what are the reader app options currently available for simply using ePub and Mobi with 4.4 and 5.4.

Hopefully the next firmware update may make the need for all of this moot.

Thanks for the ongoing help.
