Nook Fails to Communicate & Download eBooks

As if supply and shipping delays weren't enough, the Barnes & Noble ebook device known as the "Nook", has suffered major problems downloading purchased content. With hopes to topple Amazon's Kindle, they are going to have to start doing a little better than that to gain and maintain a loyal following.

B&N Nook

You didn't think the whole Nook saga was over, did you? After just succeeding in delivering devices to expectant pre-orderers in time for Christmas, Barnes and Noble is today cleaning up yet another mess courtesy of its ill-prepared content servers. Judging by customer feedback on its support forums, it appears a glut of download requests over gift-giving day jammed the B&N net pipes and left a great many disappointed Nook users.
