			Finally got sick of my Nook Color's weight and terrible battery life, so I picked up a refurbed 16gb Nook Tablet today ($119). 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Question is, will I need to re-convert all my existing (side loaded) ebooks, or will they transfer over just fine?  |

			You shouldn't have to do anything other than copy them to the new device.

			Thank you, that's what I figured.  The screen size is identical, so I didn't really think there would be any problems, I just wanted to make sure.  Re-converting all my books was not something I was looking forward to.

			Side loaded books do not have to be converted. Switching to the HD is also conversion free.
