It's been almost a month and I'm quite pleased with the Nook due in no small part to the Calibre management software. I think Calibre has a lot of growing up to do but it's GREAT at converting file formats. I converted almost all of my rtf books to epub and was even able to convert our purchased Sony books to open on the Nook.

I'm hoping that either an official or unofficial update will fix battery life and allow for collections of books or folders.
Folders you already can have, when softrooting, within "Trook".
