When you go to the Barnes and Noble and choose to read a book for 1 hour, where does it download the book too? I am rooted btw

So I recently bought a refurbished NC, should be arriving any day now.
I have read a bit about registering the nook (which I assume links it with your b&n account) and about signing in with google to get market, gmail, etc. (i'll probably run cm7).
My question is: I have a barnes and noble acct already with a couple books on it, let's call it "abcd+bn AT gmail"
I have an android/gmail acct I would like to use so I can share purchased apps and whatnot, which is "abcd AT gmail"
Google treats them as the same account, but I saw something about how they should be matched on the nook, so I guess I'm wondering which e-mails I should use to sign in where, or if it is possible to have both of these working at the same time.
If not, re-registering "abcd AT gmail" on b&n will probably be the preferable option because I only have a couple books and stripped DRM so I can transfer them over easily, they just won't appear in my actual Nook Library TM or whatever.
Thanks for the help.
If you use CM7, there is no need to register for a BN account. CM7 does not incorporate the BN Registration.
When you first get your NC, go through the start up process and sign into your existing B&N account with the same name and password that you would use if you were on their website. This will get you registered in the event you have a warranty problem later. After that, if you decide to root the stock ROM or install a custom ROM such as CM7 for market access you will use your regular Android account. At that point, if you install the B&N Nook reader app from the Android market you just sign in to your B&N account normally when you launch the app. Your B&N account and your Android account are completely separate.
Makes total sense, thanks
Looking forward to it!
Ok so what's the difference between the cloud and what's on my device? I have all my books on the cloud but they are also all on my device. Can I put apps on the cloud? I guess I'm just confused as to how it works.

The "cloud" (I really hate that term) contains anything you have purchased from Amazon but may or may not have downloaded yet. You can also upload your own content.
The Cloud [store and remove]
Consider the cloud sort of like a backup of everything you've gotten from Amazon Market for you Fire: books and apps. You can "remove from device" any of that stuff and you've still got it in your Cloud. So, you can go buy a ton of freebies on Amazon and they'll forever be in you Cloud; you can store it all there [unorganized].
In fact, the only way to remove it from you're Cloud is to got to "manage device" from within Amazon website and actively mark it for deletion. After a sync or reboot, it'll eventually go away from your cloud view on your Fire.
I'd like to be able to highlight text passages and email them to myself.
It seems like the only way to do this is by highlighting text in the B&N reader, then pressing share. (and linking my gmail account)
However, the rooted NST can't do this (the field is greyed out).
can anybody tell me if this is a known issue with rooted NST? Do any of you have a way around it? I tried using cool reader, but the dictionary feature is way less slick than the B&N reader.
B&N sucks. I finally figured out that they disable emailing text from books not purchased from B&N. seriously? so stupid
I installed the Nook Android app on my Note 10.1, setting my region as the United Kingdom. The only books that synced are the default Pride and Prejudice and a sample book I downloaded a long time ago. Anything else downloaded later than that doesn't sync. Is it to do with the region? My NST is a US one with a fake US address registered to my B&N account as I'm not in the US.
Alternatively, I could use DropSync to sync my sideloaded books plus the folder where bookmarks and annotations are stored on my NST with the Nook app. Would that work? I like using the NST's stock reader.
Also, do sideloaded files sync? There's a Sync button on the My Files page of the Android app. What else would that be for? :S
I have a TouchNooter'd Nook (first generation ST Nook) that I want to give to my nephew.
The GMAIL App / Google Play Store / Nook Account ... all work fine.
BUT I want to remove them (or change them to a dummy account) before I give it to him.
I cannot find a way to do that. Please help!!!
