Packed with clear instructions and helpful illustrations, "NOOK Tablet: The Missing Manual" (O'Reilly Media, $19.99) gets you up to speed on the NOOK Tablet so you can enjoy ebooks, magazines, games, apps, TV shows, and movies right away.
"I also cover advanced topics such as transferring files between your NOOK and computer, using your NOOK for work, and even temporarily 'rooting' your NOOK so you can use it as full-blown Android tablet," notes Gralla.
