Reading Nook Books on non-Nook tablets

[bridgetmkennitt]

I was looking to purchase a book from Barnes & Noble except it only comes in hardcover and Nook Book. I don't want to purchase a hardcover but I've never purchased a Nook Book before. I have a tablet (Sony Xperia) and I'd like to read this book from it instead of at my computer. Would I be able to purchase it from my computer and transfer it to my tablet or would I need to purchase it directly from my tablet? Also, will I be able to read a Nook Book from my non-Nook tablet and how so? Thank you in advance!

Once you've bought it, you can generally tell by whether you can open it on another device or not. Or if you have Calibre, try to convert it to another format. If the file has DRM on it, the conversion will fail and report that as the reason.
