I am a US citizen living in China. I am interested in the Nook. (I looked at the international Kindle for a minute, but they don't service China.) I know a lot of the features will not be usable, but that is OK with me. What I am trying to find out is if there's a way to buy ebooks from BN and manually load them on the Nook. I know I can use sites like Fictionwise, but I'd like to be able to access BN since they sometimes have titles that the independent sites don't, and their prices are lower. Does anyone know if the ONLY way to add a book to the nook is via wireless?
