Here's a link: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/bn-mobile-info/index.asp I think I'll put it on my iPhone and see if I can order books through the mobile site.

In Nook the two-finger swipe-down works wonderfully, and definitely as you read and two-finger double-tap to stop reading you can do anything and come right back to where you were reading. I very seldom search for anything in a book so will leave that to someone else. If I don’t hear something, I can use the rrotor very successfully to spell or repeat the word. The delete a book function is not on the screen where you open the books, but a one-finger triple-tap brings up the annotation for the book and at the right upper part of the screen, slightly lower than the status bar there are things you can do with the book such as archiving and deleting. Archiving lets the book stay with BN in their cloud, (whatever a cloud is, must be like iCloud and I don’t truly understand that either), so you can re-download it if you wish. All this to say that I am very pleasantly surprised by the app and will definitely use it, especially since they have books less than 5 dollars. Does iBooks do the same? I haven’t found it, and to me that would win Nook more kudos from me. > > Reggie > > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group. > > To search the VIPhone public archive, visithttp://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/. > > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. > > For more options, visit this group athttp://groups.google.com/group/viphone?hl=en. > > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group. > > To search the VIPhone public archive, visithttp://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/. > > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. > > For more options, visit this group athttp://groups.google.com/group/viphone?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
