About this ebook

While the Nook Simple Touch is somewhat similar to the original Nook, its infrared touchscreen makes for a completely different reading experience. The Nook Simple Touch Survival Guide provides you with tips and tricks you can use upon unboxing your new eReader. This guide sorts through all of the unnecessary clutter of the official manual and gives you task-based instructions.

Instead of learning which buttons perform which functions, you will learn how to use those buttons to navigate your Nook to buy, read, and mark up your eBooks. Instead of presenting an arbitrary table of gestures you can use on the touchscreen, this book shows you where those gestures are needed by integrating them into the tasks you are doing. Additionally, each set of step-by-step instructions is accompanied by a set of detailed screenshots to help you to confirm that you are on the right track.

By reading this book, you will unlock hidden secrets, such as downloading FREE eBooks and surfing the web using the hidden web browser on your Nook Simple Touch. The reference material given in this guide is constantly updated, never stagnant. The next time Barnes and Noble releases a software update, simply re-download this eBook to get the latest version.
