There is a way to bypass the "required" registration when starting a new Nook device. I forget the method off hand but there is a keypress or something to hold and it will start fully without requiring a B&N login.
As for tablets not booting from some cards, the trick is to turn off the device, and insert a card (or already have it inserted) then plugin the device to the charger. That gives it the necessary "kick" to have to boot the card. Not all devices require this, but many do. It seems to vary from device to device.
With regard to B&N moving Fictonwise to Nook...I signed up for it, and it never happened. I wasn't too concerned though as I downloaded my entire library there twice just to be safe and I have it all sideloaded to my nook. Didn't bother me I couldn't access it from the servers. I trust my own machine far more than I ever will a "cloud" server.
