Hi Don, I have downloaded a book and read it continuously with just a two-finger swipe. When I turned off the phone or exited the app and then went back to it later on, I was exactly where I had left off reading.
Unfortunately, there's no sleep switch - so when I accidentally fell asleep for a chapter or two, it took me a while to find my original place <smile> - but I did! Now, I have a question for Nook app users - I have a magazine subscription. I can read through the table of contents but can't figure out how to read the magazine continuously, or how to go to a specific page - does anyone know? Thanks. And, bravo to Barnes and Noble for making their Nook app accessible! Penny On 2/7/13, Raul A. Gallegos <r...@raulgallegos.com> wrote: > Hi, you can definitely read continuously.
