    Jeebus.
    Nook must have decided to offload the lot of them.

    Ican't get their website to work, keep getting error. Going to try BlackWells.

    Ordered on littlewoods 5 hours ago but still haven't got a confirmation email. Anyone else in the same boat?

    €38.34 all in from Blackwell. That is perfect.

    I went for the £3.50 delivery to my house, instead of ParcelMotel. I'll save my Parcel Motel credit, as knowing my luck, i'll have €41 on my debit card, and i'll see something that has to be delivered using PM, and it'll cost €37.51.

    I ordered one from nook's website using BT1 1AA for postcode for delivery and billing but recieved an email stating the credit card issuer wont approve the charge. Anyone found a way of getting around this, or should I just order from Blackwell?

    Er, anyone know if you can use an Irish billing address on the uk.nook.com site? Wanted to use Parcel Motel, put in the NI address for Parcel Motel, Went though it all and when it came to billing address it wouldn't let me change the country from UK to Ireland...

    Just to say, make a 1:1 image of your freshly delivered Nook Simple Touch, before any further exploring.

    Easy as pie to do.

    You can do a lot with these rubbery little beasts..

    Did it let you use your billing address even though the country says UK?

    Yes I used UK as the country but it still went through. A lot of people on hukd are having trouble with their cards ordering through the Nook site so it might have nothing to do with it being an Irish address.

    These are excellent. Can be hacked to within an inch of its life. Very pleasing form factor with a rubberised rear surface.

    What can you do with them?

    Can I ask why everybody is ordering from the nook.co.uk and blackwell sites rather than littlewoods.ie? It's making me worried that maybe I shouldn't have ordered from littlewoods!

    Ah, okay. Makes sense then. Just a bit paranoid since I still haven't received my confirmation email. Patience.

    How did you manage to get them to deliver to Ireland, the site expressly says UK customers only?

    It didn't initially, but you can order anyway, go through the process as normal, and if need be, enter UK postcode as BT11AA
