Nook Tablet Repartitioned at BN Store?
Has anyone taken BN's offer to have his/her NT repartitioned at a BN store? What is the process used and how long does it take?

I have a NC not the NT but believe the process would be similar, I had mine re-partitioned about a month ago and have been very happy with the results, no more error messages when downloading apps, Whoopee! At the BN store they used an SD card to re-partition my NC afterwards I had to sign back in then she did a test download of an app and later I re-download all my purchases at home. I waited around 25 minutes partly because the lady who worked on my NC was not familiar with the process but had paperwork giving her step by step instructions. You will lose anything sideloaded so make sure you have things important saved somewhere but all things purchased through BN are automatically saved in the Cloud. Hope this gives you a little insight.

The device is restored to factory state, so yes, you lose everything.

one more thing...
I had a similar experience - took 30 minutes with the Nook rep very slowly reading through a set of instructions, since the rep had never done it before. It's not a difficult process - they have a microSD card they insert, and then they reboot the unit.

There is no choice on the sizes of the two partitions - it's equally split - 8G for sideloads, 8G for B&N content.

I think that's a much better split that the default it ships with. Thanks for the update.
