You can download books through Barnes & Nobles website if you have an account as well as lending books out to friends. The excellent ebook management program Calibre can generate artwork for the Novel as well as other ereader programs. The library would only show cover-art if you had matching title art. The other shelves would populate with the other books in your inventory if you put them on the internal or external card. MY LIBRARY would feature multiple bookshelves the first shelf containing what you are currently reading. Magazines and Newspapers would not offer samples as much as pricing for single issues or a subscription. Clicking on the store items brought up a thumbnail of the cover, a description and the price, usually including a chance to download a free sample of the book.

The Bookstore features buttons for Bestsellers, New Releases, eMagazines, eNewspapers and Update to the Barnes & Nobles server. I did not have the pleasure of running the Novel in a Barnes & Noble Bookstore to see if there were any special items that appear like they do for the Nook like free timed in-store book readings or coupons.

The Novel’s main feature is the Barnes & Noble e-reader/bookstore software sort of a full color Nook.
I had to reset my router to finally get the Novel and the router talking to each other.

I had some trouble with finding my hidden network, but the manual says how to use the manual setting. Wireless does a decent job of scanning websites using b/g/n adapter. Subscriptions, Alarms Photos Support and a Working Reset to Default settings. Under Settings, you can adjust Wireless, Calibration (use a stylus for maximum precision)
PANDIGITAL SCANNER SETTINGS ANDROID
Running on the Android OS, The Novel is a ‘closed’ system meant to use Pandigital’s proprietary launcher of programs. The battery looks removable, although I haven’t researched this. The back is stuck on with double-sided tape, but is still solid after removing it to replace the memory card. The unit might feel a little slick to hold as it is smooth so hopefully there will be a case for this. YMMV but Bed Bath & Beyond does have a good return policy. I have heard stories of units that has some cracks on the edges, but my unit was fine. I heard a little rattle when shaking although I didn’t see anything loose. Overall, the unit has a nice weight to it, and a solid feel. The sound output isn’t bad, but I wouldn’t rock out to the external speakers as the videos play in landscape mode, and the sound could get lost unless you crank it up. The bottom features the headphone jack for typical earplugs and stereo speakers. It wasn’t bad, but weird to see when using the Novel. When holding the unit with the left hand and using my right index finger to swipe pages, a firm poke worked, though you can see the reaction (smearing) on screen with the digitizer. I had a stylus from a Palm TX that did the trick (also can use the reset pin when unscrewed on the Novel reset hole.) But when using the Novel, a finger did do the trick. This is a resistive touchscreen (PDA as opposed to a capacitive one (iPhone, Droid phone) so it needs a nice pointy finger, or a stylus for maximum control. They do feel sturdy enough for extended use. It has a sliding power switch and a rocker for volume control.
There are not many controls on the Novel. The rest is in white plastic smooth but not cheap feeling. The screen is glass on top, and is a fingerprint magnet, but seem to handle wear OK, although I want to cobble a screen protector. The white Pandigital weighs about 1.lb 2.0z, about the same as a 326 page hard cover book.
Pandigital currently has one unit out a white with a black matte 7 1/2″ by 5 1/2″, although an all black unit will be out soon. To utilize both memory cards you have to boot without the external card. NOTE: If you turn on the Novel with the external SD inserted, the Novel will not recognize the internal card. The Novel also has a external SD slot that can use up to 32 gigs. The Novel is a solid unit that uses a rechargeable battery that can be removed/replaced unofficially as well as an internal 1gig Micro-SD card that can be replaced. The box contains a Mini-USB cable, AC power supply (The Novel DOES NOT Charge via USB A shame, but not impossible.) A stand (that can be used to sit the Novel for charging or viewing pictures.) and the manual.

I ran to grab a unit at Bed Bath & Beyond with a 20% off coupon and a PDF of a $20 rebate (to send to Pandigital) in hand to eagerly try it out.
