How to know if i got a defective item?

[nooktablet]

Just got mine it looks nice but i want to know what issues can i check to know did i get a defective item or not?

Also this might be a dumb question but it's running .26 firmware, and asking me to update. Should i update and how can i root after the update (i think it will update to .30)

Thanks

After updating to .30 I managed to root it by following these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689193
