Glowlight Plus ePub support

Was just reading the nook subreddit and someone was claiming that the nook did not support sideloaded ePubs and a software update was coming in December to add suport for sideloaded ePubs (non-DRM), and ADE ePubs and PDFs.

I don't see how the Glowlight+ wouldn't support ePubs out of the box, since that's the format B&N sells their books in. But I figure it can't hurt to ask.

Has someone sideloaded an ePub and gotten it to work?

The issue is the DRM, not the side-loading. I've read Epubs on the Glowlight Plus.

yea, Nook has always supported epub, it's the format that ebooks purchase from BN come in.

The issue is that the GLP runs KitKat which doesn't play nice with ADE. But BN is aware of the issue, and is going to put out a software update allowing you to authorize the GLP with an Adobe account.
