And it isn't just computer books we're talking about, 'Pride and Prejudice' has a 2 level TOC.
I was hoping to use Nook for my O'Reilly computer book collection because of somewhat better formatting and ability to more easily navigate hyperlinks (than my Kindle). But at least the ePub version of the book I'm looking at has no HTML TOC. So effectively there is no TOC, since Nook won't show the entire NCX TOC. There are 80 or more pages between each top level TOC item. In this case there's a workaround: since they are DRM free, I can write a script to flatten the TOC. But they need to fix this.

I am with you on this one. I hope B&N update the firmware for multi-level TOC, plus the issue with the reader losing the page when connecting to the PC. If you have to go back to the last read page, and your TOC is missing all the level 2 and below items, it can be a royal PITA.
