Got my Nook!

But... I can't open the box because it's a Christmas present for my wife. I should sneak a peek... the only thing is if I turn it on, it'll ask me to register it to which I would want her to do it so it has the "new" feel when she opens it on Christmas. Man! This thing should had been delayed until Christmas eve!!!

This is my excuse whenever I buy my kids gadgets like mp4 players. Also, "I had to preload it with media..."

Maybe another nook user would know if there's a "Restore to Factory Defaults" setting that would allow you to play with it first and then reset it for her?

yeah! but apparently part of the problem here is restoring the Nook to the impossible packaging!

What a great gift for you wife! Wouldn't it be funny if you opened up your Christmas present from her only to find out that she got you some sort of ebook reader as well?

On a side note, my best friend would ALWAYS open up and try out the presents that she got me for Christmas / birthdays, and I really would never mind at all. Not that I'm suggesting you give the Nook a whirl before wrapping it up...
