I don't understand why B&N even bothers to do this storage partitioning!
That said, it may not be a problem for some people. Few people will use a device of this size for pdf or manga. Even a 5GB partition can hold hundreds, if not thousands, of ePubs.
I have several ways to circumvent the storage partitioning foolishness, so I'm not concerned with that.
Why go through the trouble with this Nook? For me, it's the Android OS. The ability to have an eInk device that not only reads book files but that can also have Scribd, Instapaper and my favorite Bible study app installed on it (to name only a few examples) is huge for me. Android is the reason I looked into Boyue and Onyx. If Kobo devices used Android, I'd have one and wouldn't bother with the Nook!
