Can you use this for downloading college class textbooks on this rather than buying the actual books?

If the textbook is available in digital form, then yes you can. I'd recommend going onto Barnes and noble's website and looking to see if they are before purchasing if that is your sole reason for wanting to buy this.

I have not tried that. It can play e-books. More here" http://www.cobyusa.com/?p=prod∏_num_id=10557&pcat;_id=2001

I'm not sure about that, but it may be possible depending on the book's file-type. Sorry, I couldn't be of more assistance.

Yes, its possible for other divice, only you have take the necesary app, for example I can see text for Kindle.

I would think so, though I haven't used it for anything like an unabridged dictionary or tall atlas. I'm only using it for my law books right now.

I don't think you could use it directly, but you could use it as a storage drive for your kindle and then use your computer to transfer files.

No, it is far too shallow for textbooks. Might work for paperbacks, though.

You can only "borrow" books from Amazon using a kindle device. You can borrow from your library on any device.

Yes, but the connection will bog down your kindle if your not careful with your storage and what your doing. You also have to keep in mind that the kindle wasn't designed to be a net book, but can be formatted to act like one.

Yes you can, although I haven't done so yet. You can find apps for doing this at https://play.google.com/store/search?q=audio+books&c;=apps.

it has a built-in app for downloading e-books; don't recall its name. many classic e-books are free.

I haven't found a way to do that yet. I use the kindle app to read eBooks from Amazon. Actually I haven't found a way to download amazon books at all unless a kindle is involved :(However this Naxa E reader will read .doc, .pdf, .txt files (make sure it isn't a .docx these cannot be read)

To download it yes. I don't think to use it once it's loaded. Didn't really matter for us since it never worked properly.

Without a problem and in fact is good idea to keep them in the Cloud and only download the books to want to immediately read. It saves space on your computer

Yes, you can! I download audio books from the library using the Overdrive platform and it recognizes the player. It actually works really well for books (but not for playlists).

With the proper application yes. As there are many providers of audio-books you would have to download the correct app to view them.

you can but don't think it would be helpful...your best bet is to either buy the full version or the one with the mini box it comes with the software adn you don't have to be a student
