It has the Google Play store on it now, so you never need to deal with B&N again as far as that goes.

The irony is that their tablets and e-readers (until the most recent version of each) are wonderful devices. If they revived the Nook Simple Touch w/Glowlight and slapped a Voyage screen in it, I'd buy that baby today!
B&N putting Google Play on nook tablets saved them from utter uselessness. Perhaps the real problem is resetting or buying a used one as you must have a nook online account to even activate the tablet.
