Yep. The ST with and without Glowlight had SD card slot. I still use mine.

I think the Nooks were great as far as hardware went, but the software wasn't quite as good as the Kobo even back then.

That is true and has continued. The 2015 Glowlight Plus is so much nicer than the Paperwhite 3 and I think the current Glowlight 4 looks much nicer than the Clara 2E or the current Paperwhite. But their software...

Once you get used to being able to adjust layout as much as you can in even my old Kobo Aura HD it's hard to go back.

I bought my first Kobo when I broke the screen on my first Nook. For me, I didn't have to do as much tinkering with the layout on the Nook. It just looked better out of the box than Kobo ever did until I started patching.
For me, Nooks were better at page layout than Kobo or Kindle. It was everything elsewhere Nook fell behind (and still does).
If I could use Calibre to control shelves and series for sideloaded content on current Nook firmware, I'd probably move back.
