Well, I figured today before I got to work I'd drop in and just pick one up. So I stopped in Barnes and Noble and grabbed a Nook Glowlight plus. I spent about 4 hours after getting home just trying to get the thing to charge and update.

And yeah, I guess I should eat crow....I'm not liking it anywhere close to what I thought I would with an e-ink device.

The screen feels weird to me. Like a kinda scrape-y sensation, not as smooth or polished as I thought. I guess since I'm so used to my Nook HD+ and phone screens so maybe that is usual, I don't know.

I was happy I seem to have so much room to add my side loaded books from Calibre---but one problem. And I really hope this isn't an issue on the Kindle Paperwhite cause after I return this Nook that's what I think I'll get instead.

On the Nook, it reads my calibre loaded books as "My Files"--ok, I got it--but it won't let me create different shelves for them, I can only create shelves for the B&N purchased content. So if I had history books for example, I couldn't divide them up into Civil War or World War II subjects to scroll through browsing.

I did not see that happening. It didn't even occur to me that could happen since the reader app on my phone that I use, and even my HD+ lets me divide that stuff into different sub sections for easier browsing, side loaded content or purchased books.

Is this an issue on the Paperwhite or Kobo Glo HD? If so...I might just have to stuff that money I was spending on this on something else.

Is it possible to divide the sideloaded stuff up like you can on the---well, the app I use is Universal Book Reader on my android phone. (I know, the FB reader is the more popular one, but it works for me.)
