I have not tried it. I don't buy a lot from B&N but you will find other posts on this subject where people have reported they can. While I have not tried B&N no problems with Sony or Goggle epubs.

It's still Adobe ePub DRM, but slightly different than what EVERYONE else uses. I'd suggest looking into DRM stripping possibly...

Short answer, no you cannot read B&N epubs on a Kobo device without removing the B&N DRM.

In order to do THAT, you must learn to love cabbages...
