Review: It's perfect. Exactly what I wanted - I purchased this device new through desertcart Marketplace from JJ's RealBuy. It's perfect. Exactly what I wanted, an e-reader only, simple to use, sharp paper style screen, reasonably priced and with an expandable memory. If this is what you're looking for as well, go for it. You can manage the Nook using the free library management program Calibre, adding and deleting books from the Nook without having to log on to Barnes & Noble with the device. You can also get a ton of legally free books from Project Gutenberg, organize them in Calibre, and transfer them over to your Nook. The built in memory space on the Nook is only 250 MB for books not purchased through Barnes & Noble. The rest of the built in memory is reserved for the OS and your B&N purchases. But who cares, since this Nook has a Micro SD card slot for up to 32 GB of additional space! I just went ahead and bought a 32 GB card at the same time I ordered the Nook. I now have space for thousands of books! This does not have the built in reading light, but I didn't need that, and the newer Glo Light models don't have the expandable memory. I've also read that the battery drains faster on the Glo Light. If you like to listen to audible books, you can't do that on this Nook. Personally, I don't listen to audible books, so it's not a drawback for me. But if at some point in the future I did want to do that, I would just use my phone.
Review: Been waiting for this for a long time - I found tablets and phones lack the battery life and quiet simplicity of this type of specialised product. Forget checking email, listening to audio or constant distractions. This ereader is purely a reading machine. The text is clearer than a laser printed page and the capacity of 32GB micro SD card means accessibility to 10,000's of books. As with my Samsung table I found PDF viewings unsatisfactory and even maps in epubs were a disappointment. Another issue is that, without a US credit card billing address, B&N will not let you use your account so I have had to store by own epubs in the machine and find them elsewhere. The unit is easy to operate and had a claimed battery life of up to two months. It is easily charged from a micro USB connection and files can easily be copied from a PC. The crystal clear text and easy touch or button navigation make reading a pleasure. There is only a minuscule delay when turning pages. All in all I am delighted by the unit which is good value for something that holds practically my entire library.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it have a slot for sd card?**
A: Nook Simple Touch has micro SD card slot, supporting up to 32GB. I am using 8GB and find it more than enough for all books and comics i need.

**Q: Is it possible to read using this product at night?**
A: I bought this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1935009362/ref=oh_aui_reorder_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 for use with mine and love it.  The single AAA battery is great, I use a rechargeable one.  This is my absolute all-time favorite reader.  So sad they're not making them any more.

**Q: do I need Wi-Fi to use the tablet**
A: Yes, in order to activate the tablet and download ebooks you need to use WiFi. But you don't need Wi-Fi to read your books after you have downloaded them over WiFi.

**Q: Can the books for the Nook be purchase on Amazon or do we have to go to Barnes & Noble?**
A: I don't buy books, I get them from my library, but it looks to me that the offers come from Barnes & Noble. Just wanted to say that, when my previous Nook was stolen and I bought and registered this one, all my books came back on it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Little Ebook Reader!
*by G***D on June 23, 2012*

I'm the kind of guy that wants something to function well and that's it. This thing is brilliant at what it does: displays ebooks. No frills, no apps, no video, no nonsense. Because of this it makes it very easy to use. Download Calibre for free and this baby syncs right up with it. Battery lasts forever, and it has the same charger as most android smart phones, so In the mornings I take my smartphone off its charger and replace it with my little nook. I am in the military and as someone else said, this fits perfect in the side cargo pocket of my ABU's. I had the Kobo, which was a great reader, and my wife had the last nook which I didn't like because it was so damn heavy. I bought this for me so I could give my Kobo to my little girl. I was able to snag one used on here from a seller named NikonLover for $47! This thing is really great. The only complaint I can make is that the page buttons are a little too recessed, but this is not a huge issue as I turn the pages mostly via touchscreen anyways. Using this little beauty, and loading all of my own books, and PDF's that I have converted via Calibre, makes me beg the question: Why are people still buying Kindles? I guess that is the same dilemma I have with Iphones. Oh well, a fool and his money.... Buy this now! You will not regret it!
