You probably don't need a converter, just an adapter. Most high tech devices will accept a range of 110 - 240 volts. Look at the small print on the device itself.
The adapter allows a US-style plug to be used in a European outlet. Adapters are inexpensive and readily available at travel stores.

For any device, just look at the regular charger - it will show you what range of voltage and current it can handle. The Nook, and just about every other electronic device made recently accepts 110-240 volts. I haven't taken a converter for anything in ages.
One caveat - any type of heating appliance for the US market will probably cause problems no matter what the information on the appliance says. The reason for this is that the total wattage on US appliances is generally higher than for Europe and can overload circuits.
