Hello, from a new nook owner

Hello all,

I just bought my nook on Monday evening. This is my first foray into ebooks and e-readers. I read quite a bit and re-read almost all of my books. With my paper library becoming totally unmanageable in size I realized I had to find some other solution. The Nook feels like the right choice for me.

I am a wee bit surprised that the nook doesn't get much good press on this board but I suppose that is the natural consequence of the problems in the 1.0 and 1.1 software. Running 1.3 I don't have any problems with my nook and am considering rooting it after the nookdev library app gets updated for the new 1.3 file layout.

One nice thing about the nook is how easy it is to use on linux, windows and mac, all of which exist in my household. I am particularly surprised at how nice it is to use with calibre on linux and must thank the authors of that nice tool.

-Duncan
