How can I read a book from nook for iPad without wifi?

I'm surprised at that problem. My wife has a Kindle (a real one, not an iPad app) and she can read books without WiFi. What happens when you try to look at a book? Any message?

There is a nook app. And it works pretty much the same way as the kindle app. Buy the book, download it, and read it from within the app.

I had assumed that that's what she had done. Is there another way to read Nook books?

I never got the app to work well, personally. I think there is a comflict in file type between i books and the nook variety. The first nook book i bought ended up loading to my i book library.

What i think is hapeneing is that when you download a book, the device tries to verify that you are a registered user and the buyer. I would expect it plants a piece of code somewhere in the file, and looks at it every time you open the book. I would guess that something in that process failed, and it keeps wanting to verify vis the net every time you open the book.

I suggest you totally delete the app. Redownload it, and make sure you complete any registration steps that need to happen during the install process. If that does not work, wander over tho the barnes and nobel store with your pad, and ask for help.

Are you using the Nook app? If so, then yes you should be able to download it. If you can't, that's an issue that you need to take up with B&N.
