Nooks with 1000XX Serial Numbers?
Living in Canada, I figured a good way to grab a Nook (and one that is easily rooted) is off of eBay. I managed to snag one LNIB (3G + Wifi version too! too bad 3G won’t work here), but it seems to be one of the very first ones with a 1000XX serial number. The seller said it was purchased in Feb 2010. I’ve heard the very first nooks were prone to cracking and other issues. Should I be concerned?

And anyway, the damage is just cosmetic. The Nook will work fine with cracked buttons, and if you use a cover you will probably not even see it. There are no other problems with early Nooks compared to newer ones. |

I bought my nook in January 2010 so I believe it's still the first batch and I haven't experienced any cracking at all and I use it every night for 1-5 hrs of reading (do most reading in weekends but read a little every night)
