I can't argue with that; it's true in much the same way that a bad cold is preferable to a bad case of the flu or pneumonia. :/ My condolences. Can you escape the contracts by simply paying for the device? (Then I'd think that my strategy of owning a WiFI hotspot device and using WiFi...

I'll do that for other problems, BUT -- found the answer to *this* issue finally over on barnesandnoble.com. :-) The folder/directory that must be used for non-B&N downloads is "My Documents", *NOT* "Content". (Where all stuff downloaded from B&N itself is placed.) Then, in the Nook App, you...

I found the proper folder and copied my own ebooks to it. The Nook app does not "see" any of those eBooks except for the ones that it downloaded from the B&N Nook store, however. I think there's a database that it keeps. That would not be an issue if there was a F)ile O)pen dialog, or if...

I don't think that your USB modem will work with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, mr_mark95. I *know* that the Verizon Jetpack MiFi 4G LTE mobile WiFi hotspot works, though. I have one, and have connected my new Galaxy tablet to it. Any WiFi-capable device sees the MiFi as just another WiFi hotspot...

I downloaded and installed the Nook Android app from the Google play store. Unfortunately when I click on an ePub book, even one that I downloaded from the B&N Nook store, my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 displays an error message stating that it cannot find an app to run the file. :( If I run...

I just bought my first tablet yesterday, a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Wifi only tablet. I'm not a smartphone user now or likely to be in the future: smartphone screens are too small for my eyes or fingers and I like having a phone be just a phone. :-) I've been a developer and technical writer...
