I can already read books, watch movies, send/receive text msgs, browse the internet and check email on my nook. What exactly will this do for me?

Nothing. I bought it as a curiosity item. I could not find any documentation that explained how to use the operating system. I now have a Nook HD. It does all that I need for a hand held computer.

Depends on the book. If you're looking for textbooks, I don't think many are offered for viewing on the Nook Simple Touch. Best bet is to just check the titles you're looking for on barnesandnoble.com.

With 2.0 you can side-load android apps like the Kindle app.. also has good, free/cheap ebook readers you can download from App World

If you have the Nook HD or Nook HD+ tablets, they come with Google Play and you could run the Amazon Reader app for Android.

Not familiar with Nook but it should work if you have a USB cable to plug it in.

I don't believe so. It has connections similar to an iPhone. I got rid of my Nook a long time ago. I hated it.

I use it for email and internet all the time. As for paying bills, you might want to invest into a small keyboard that you can plug into the USB.

Yes. I actually use the Nook app in the tablet to read my e-books (even though I don't own any B&N books), reads my EPUB books perfectly and I like its internal (i.e. not online) dictionary. I think it has the Kindle app pre-installed but I haven't used it.

You could read while using it if you have really good balance. I usually watch a movie or something on TV. You could also hold on with one hand and then hold something light with the other hand like a Kindle or ipad mini.

I got rid of my Nook. Get a Kindle, you will be a lot happier. Nooks are junk.

Not sure what you mean by "reader," but there are apps for books and stuff.

True, Google Play allows the Nook HD+ to partial act as an Android. I like having it become a complete Android tablet at times, hence I bought the AFN micro SDHC. It only matters if you want to go beyond what the Nook can do. I often return to the Nook after taking out the AFN micro SDHC. It works fine either way. Versatility is the name of the game.

One answer Yes, one answer No . So what is the correct answer for "can this tablet support Nook's apps and Nook reader" ???

Mine came with the Kindle app in it so I am able to get kindle books. It comes with Google Play/Google store where you can get all kinds of books, movies, games, music. I also went to Barnes & Noble and set up an account & got the Nook app, Actually the Nook app is available in the Google store for free. Now I am able to get books there also. A if you go to www.bookbub.com they will send you a list of daily specials. You pick the genres you are interested in reading.
