Re: B&N - shoots self in foot while dying

Ironically, I'd already sideloaded the fw books onto my nook too! :) I have
been looking forward to getting the online nook shelf to sync with ipod
touch/ipad/computer. Don't always have my nook with me. I'll archive a few
titles at a time and eventually all will be well.

I'm looking forward to learning about worthy successors to Fictionwise. I'd
grown to trust fw and it is sad to let go.
