(You can see these names in the full settings menu, that you can access only with another launcher installed.) Using Calibre Companion, then, I can get books onto the "internal storage". However, the stock Nook reader cannot see them there. So, I installed AlReader. That app can find those CC books. However, the page turn buttons do not work for AlReader. I can turn pages just fine, and quickly, by touch or swipe. I suppose I could install the Kindle app, just for fun.

You've got a lot done on this device in just a few hours. Is the Nova Launcher hard to install? I like the fact that it and Calibre Companion allow sideloaded content to reside on the "main" partition (if I understood you correctly). Not that I would really need it, but it would make me feel that all that extra memory could actually be useful ... for something like, maybe, SimpleNote for reading notes (or writing, pasting to them). Obviously I don't understand how all this would work or how difficult it would be to accomplish. But it gives me something to look into.
That screen really is nice.
