How to Reset a Nook to Return It
The Nook is Barnes & Noble's entry into the flourishing e-reader market. Similar to Amazon's Kindle in size and shape, it comes in color and black-and-white, and allows you to read e-books and magazines that can be downloaded to its on-board memory. If you would like to return your Nook in the same condition you bought it, you can perform a hard reset to restore it to its factory condition.
