    Well all In all I'm happy with Littlewoods, I received my product in 5 working days and 4 days before their estimated delivery date of May 13th, I don't know what people are complaining about, nobodies has been late yet, relax the cacks.

    If you ordered yours before those people who got theirs in 5 days, but yours is still showing as 'processed' and the delivery date is being pushed back daily, you'd be very unhappy with them too. Sure, it's nice to be one of those who benefits from their completely random system of fulfilling orders, not so nice to be on the other end of it though.

    Just a heads up,i got mine fairly fast through calling them up rather than e-mailing.

    Placed my order with Littlewoods last night, unfortunately it's currently showing the 9th of June as the delivery date. :(

    Looks like this is why they're on special offer. They're going to be Microsoft product shortly.

    Microsoft is poised to offer $1bn for e-book publisher Nook Media, which was spun out from bookshop biz Barnes and Noble, it is believed.

    Received mine from Nook store yesterday. It ships with Firmware 1.2.0 so you'll need to update it to 1.2.1.

    ..............then root the crap out of it and shove the Kindle store on there. :D

    anyone got the most up to date, straightforward process for this documented somewhere?

    Need to do mine but also pass the details on to Dad, who's not a whizz

    A windows 8 e-ink device. That will be an interesting abomination.

    Well, I have mine all loaded up with a few books and have put a new screen saver on it in honour of the hysterics on this thread.

    I was going for reassuring. If you have had an order accepted, it will ship, whether it's from blackwells, asdam currys, littlewoods or the nook website. It just might take longer than 4/5 days, there has been massive demand but Nook have the stock to meet the demand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭iPhone.


    Maybe THIS might explain it better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,280 ✭✭✭toby2111


    Now yer talking iPhone,cheers!Looks nice and easy.Any other tips/tricks I should know about?And is 4GB sd card big enough?

    4GB will be plenty big enough, just make sure obviously that you use up to date firmware and files etc as they will have changed since that video was uploaded.
