Yes, you are correct because I read on the B&N website that you can lend an ebook to a friend for 14 days. Not sure of the specifics...but I think whoever you lend it to has to either have a nook themselves or be running the nook software on a device, like a PC. My daughter (in college) wants one too and as we are both avid readers, that would be a huge selling point for us as we could share our purchases.
