The Nook Book: An Unofficial Guide: Everything You Need to Know about the Nook Tablet, Nook Color, and the Nook Simple Touch

This book is intended to provide clear, easy-to-read instructions for the beginning to intermediate user of any NOOK device. This is a book beyond the user manual, though, because it will include coverage of the suite of Barnes and Noble applications for e-reading as well as resources outside of Barnes and Noble, including the Calibre ebook management software, sources for ebooks, and rooting (or jailbreaking) the NOOKcolor to add applications from the Android Market. A significant aspect of this book will be to cut through the volume of information related to different ebook formats and how to get them onto the NOOKcolor. The flexibility of the NOOKcolor makes the value of a book that can provide clear and useful guidance to the reader all that more. This second edition covers all these new features: * The app market * Enhanced NOOKbooks * NOOKkids Read and Play * Dedicated email reader * Introduction of NOOK friends * The browser now supporting Flash content * Animated page turns * Adding any ebook or app to the home screen
