Oh boy Pac, you need to use that picture a lot around here. Very cute.

Lizzie, first try powering off your nook and then turn it on again after a couple minutes. I've had this happen and it worked. nope. rats.

Is your connection working on your computer? The first call I would make would be to Barnes and Nobel. Their service desk as been very good for me.

I had an on-line B&N chat with "Pierre", whose bottom line answer was to enter the password and all would be well. Crikey.

I'm assuming (this from a card-carrying technophobe) that if I'm able to access the Internet I must be connected, right?

And thanks to you, too, Pac, and for the Batboys.

I have been reading off a basic Kindle for over 3 years. In terms of E-reading over traditional books, I am definitely NOT old school. I love-love-love my Kindle and managed to download many books for free on various sites.

Advice? Get a protective cover for your Nook and get an extra charging connection.

I discovered that I could change my provider password on-line. So I did. Haven't tried it yet to see if that will solve my problem, but certainly hope so. On-line sure beats being on hold & being sent to various phone extensions at the phone/DSL company ad nauseum.

Thanks for the tip, chiklit. BTW, does being too close to Atlanta mean Alpharetta or Lawrenceville, for example? I lived in Roswell once upon a time.
