Anyway, I have hundreds of books in this format. I was amazed that even though this is the .pdb format that B&N uses for their online store, the books don't work correct on the nook! Some of them will open, but none of them display the meta data correctly, and of the 5 I tried, only 2 would open and authenticate properly. Yet they all open fine in the reader software on my Mac.

I haven't gotten any response from B&N's website so far, and haven't had time to call. Anyone else having these issues?
So far, I have one book (fictionwise) where the meta data does not show correctly; however all my books open without a probem and display correctly...
