The book does show in the book list. When opening, it asked for my first/last name, and credit card; it always fails to verify these information after I press submit.
Is it because my Nook is not registered?
Anyone has the same problem?
Thanks
ps. I have no problem reading ebooks purchased from ereader.com on my Nook.

The only thing you cannot do on an unregistered Nook is buy and download books directly from the B&N site (using the Nook).
The B&N document folder is only meant for those books.
If you sideload the B&N books you have to put them in the My Documents folder, just like the other books you sideload.
As for unlocking the books. A lot of people do not understand that the name needed to unlock the books is the one in your B&N account. Which will not always be exactly the same one as on your creditcard.
The fact that we cannot register the Nook is probably not because we are outside the USA, but because there is a big problem with registering using WIFI. Take a look at the B&N forum. A lot of people in the USA cannot register using WIFI. Hopefully the next update will solve the problem.
