Hi!
Since it has been about 2 years this since this advice was published, I'm wondering if it is still the best advice?
In other words:
1) If you have 2 Nooks and share the same account, does this mean that the "currently reading" will be syncrozined between them, making it difficult to read 2 different books at the same time (even tohough it would be using 2 seperate devices)?
(I don't care about the syncronization of seperate books - we will not be reading the samme book at the same time..)
2) Do the other "trick" - about copying books from one Nook onto another and then typing in the ourchasing credit card number - still work?
Thank you for any help you guys can give.
(And forgive me for potential bad grammar etc. - Danish is my first language! :-))
In my household we have 2 Nooks (first edition and touch) and 2 iPads with the NOOK app all sharing the same account.
Here are the issues:
1) Unless you are reading the same book (at the same time) as another user, you will not even notice the synchronization.
2) If two (or more) people are reading the same book then the Nook will inform you that the book is on a different page on another device and give you the OPTION to go to that page.
3) Side loading and unlocking with credit card number still works.
4) The same books will appear in the libraries of all the devices. There is no way to specify on which devices to display a book. When you archive a book it gets archived on all devices.
5) If you have devices with varying amounts of storage, then the device with the smallest amount of storage will determine how many books you can keep unarchived in your library.
NOTE: The NOOK for iPad app allows you to download your Nook books to your device, and delete the book from your iPad without archiving. This feature is not available on the first edition and I do not know if the NOOK ST has it.
