The 2013 (white-body) Glowlight was severely limited, only providing 512 MB for side-loading.
At first the 2017 Glowlight 3 (black body with both blue & orange LEDs) was similarly nerfed for side-loading, but B&N removed the partition in a firmware update. So it has plenty of space but a few bad habits, like wiping out all the user-created shelves every time you side-load new content.
I'm wondering whether the firmware update for the 2017 model is applied to the 2013 model. If that's the case, I need to dust off my old Glowlights and get rid of that memory partition.
Maybe I'll try it this weekend.
