    Wi-Fi issues right out of the box

    Wi-Fi is on. I've done the paper clip reset numerous times. Is this the Factory Reset Procedure? I thought I would try using a static IP for the Tab.

    Stock Nook Folders

    While transferring some music and videos to my un-rooted NC v1.1.0, I noticed a folder called 'Lost Folder', or something like that. Is that supposed to be there? If so, what is it for? What are the folder names on a new NC ?

    Auto Nooter 3 Questuion
