I am looking at buying NOOK GlowLight 4 but not loving that I would have to use Adobe Digital Editions software and have access to the Internet with my computer for adding web articles I convert to EPUB and then turn on Wi-fi on nook connect to hotel Wi-Fi and then download the EPUB files.

I am not interested in color Eink or magazines with photos, or graphic novels just text only reading of articles and converted MS Word docs/PDF to EPUB format to read and resize the font. I like Nook's physical page turning buttons. I would use it to read more articles I've saved from webpages rather than e-books. I also may subscribe to a digital version of NY Times newspaper for a month or so at a time.

I used to have an old Nook circa 2014 that had MicroSD card slot that I could load my own EPUB files onto using a MicroSD card reader with my PC. I bought only a handful of ebooks from nook store.

Is there an equivalent E-ink Nook device or what was the last model that still had the card slot that I could buy used? While I do not like Amazon much as a company I could use a Kindle paperwhite. I thought XTEINK X4 might be too small though it has MicroSD slot. thoughts?
