No book with it, how does it work?

Here's the honest truth. This device is a basically a Nintendo gameboy advance emulator, running on a big screen that blows up the image. The games look good when the image is turned back to it's game boy size. The games are from a decade ago, and there are no current gen anything in this device. There are really only 100 or so games in it. Game collectors could appreciate it, but yet feel that this items is very generic and 'Hong Kong' bootleg. The games are not hacked versions, but actual copies of gameboy advance games, pre-loaded,onto the so called hard drive. The 100 games repeat themselves to appear as if there are thousands in number. This system cannot do anything that a Playstation PSP can do, nor any of it's so called media content. It's all a clever gimmick. A 10 year old could appreciate this device...but would be laughed at if seen with it at school. Nevertheless it runs well, but needs to charge for a long time before it can hold it's without battery. This system is entended for it's locale. Wonderful technology for a child that may have been never been exposed to a hand held video game system. Better off going to a video game vintage shop for a more suitable deal. In the end, the emulated games running on this device were originally licensed by Nintendo. Some if the games are foreign. Be advised.

Yes your original purchase comes with one book. But it's a very general book advertising many of their other books. The one I got uses a different topic or activity or book (that they're advertising) on each page. So it's not an entire book that you read from cover to cover like a long story. You will definitely want to buy a few more books. But the entire hardware really only holds about five books total at one time so unless you want to be changing them constantly on the memory you really only need five books. Our first scout Junior lasted almost 3 years before the computer started fritzing out. We are on our second scout and just love him.

I didn't get one with mine, I just looked at picture to make sure I had it in right. Then you just press the middle button and it will start, when it get through it will give you a reading and turn off by itself, it also stores your reading. I really like mine,

I don't buy books, I get them from my library, but it looks to me that the offers come from Barnes & Noble. Just wanted to say that, when my previous Nook was stolen and I bought and registered this one, all my books came back on it.

No. It's the simplest e-book you can find. It doesn't have any sound or card slot. But it does have VERY LONG battery life, it's very light and compact. It fits in most pockets you have in your pants and jackets. You don't need internet or any other connection to use the e-book, but you have to use USB cable (included) or wall charger (need to buy) for recharging the battery. Usually I charge it full night and it works about 1 week.

The quick answer is no. But the course is so well put together that you don't need books. I was impressed this how intuitive the coursework is presented. You really don't need books and there is a help facility that explains how to use the software. I am thinking of learning another language because I feel like I am there working with someone who knows the language.

I agree with Julianna. The person who says you can scan directly to your computer must be a computer whiz. SD card bought separately is required for me. I bought a mini SD card with adaptor. I guess it would depend on how fragile the book is and if it is larger than 8.5X11.5. If it is larger, you would have to scan it in sections and piece it together.

Hello J, I installed the Nook app and it seems to work. I did not try any enhanced or animated books because I don't have any. I can stream other things, like ESPN, so the enhanced or animated books should work. I hope that helps.

We haven't figured it all out either cause it says you have to purchase the instruction and software seperate. We probably going to have to buy the book. Isn't that a pain. Sorry couldn't be more help.

When you got scout, there is a book in the package. This book is already in the scout and do not need download. Is the scout work with that book? If it work, may be download new book step is not successful.

There's no manual. You just go on the site and download a pdf. You should've gotten an email from them regarding this and it explains it on the actual package as well. Their customer service is pretty great and she gets back to you promptly if you email her. I've ordered multiple times from them and never had a problem.

There is an instruction sheet with the unit. Don't believe I ever saw a book nor would you need one.
