BN ereader came loaded on my new phone and I thought it was the next best thing to string cheese...until the problems started.

To test it out I went to Barnes & Nobles, opened up and account, and downloaded 5 free books. So far so good. Out of the 5 books, two were readable and 3 failed to load after download? What??? Hmmm, so I thought perhaps it was because they were "free" that there were issues. Then I purchased a book for $1.00 and it downloaded fine. But then the lines were scrunched together so it made it hard on the eyes to read. No matter what I did to remedy it via the tools ~ no fix. I even tried uninstalling/re-installing. Still have issues with some books failing to load and others having formatting problems. How disappointing. I hope they fix this stuff.
