The shelves are awesome. But I need subshelves! There's a shelf for the SO and a shelf for me. But then, he put stuff on his shelf that I will have on mine too. So now the main page just has all the same stuff, but twice. I need to do some reorging. I've barely bought anything, it's all free stuff right now. And I need to get reading.
AND I ordered this great deal, 15 piece Nook accessory kit for like 3 bucks, and I broke my Amazon boycott to do it. And the originating company had overcommitted. So instead of backordering, or letting us know, or something, they just cancelled a bunch of orders. Including mine.
So now I still want to order an accessory pack, with like, screen protectors and a car charger and stuff, but it'll cost me 20 bucks instead of 3, and it won't get here before the trip. Blah.
Oh, yeah, and I don't want to archive, because then I'd have to redownload, and for me, the bandwidth is actually the biggest cost of the damn thing because of the wonky 3g. Well, that and it turns out I'm not actually getting all that much from the store. So working 3g wouldn't have helped me.

Amazon wants you to honour your stance. Don't fight it.
I hadn't realised how many free books I'd downloaded. I'm a crazy person. It's not like I've started reading any of the hundred+ that are lying there.
But, you know, if I ever need the Yellow Fairy Book, I know where it is.
ita, did you know that the LAPL allows you to download free books too. For a short period of time, that is (like 21 days). I've been using lots of those books too.

Right? So much for you, Amazon.
I ended up signing up with the Philadelphia library to get my library books. I don't have my credentials yet, but when I do, whoo, library books on my nook.
I'm missing something obvious, Kat. I'm puttering around NetLibrary, and although it says I limited my list to downloadable books, it's bringing up an Opera-unfriendly viewer. I created a NetLibrary account and everything, and no book is showing me check out and download options.
Can you tell me a title you downloaded?
I don't use NetLibrary but Overdrive because I also get audio stuff for school. A Title I just downloaded was Very LeFreak.
If it doesn't work, ita, I'll try to recreate the steps I took. It was a pain the ass to get everything to work but now it's kinda great.
I think I got it working, Kat, but damn that was a lot of steps. And installs. And glayvin.
Now I just have to remember to read those damned books. The selection was irritatingly low. Most of the stuff I wanted wasn't available. The artificial restriction on resources is annoying, although I understand it's not financially viable to have infinite copies.
