Is it wrong that I have rooted my nook and installed a lot of aps, but haven't signed up with B&N to buy books with my nook?
Is it worse that I have install google books and kindle for android?
On the other hand B&N did try to sell me a copy of Sherlock Holmes instead of presenting me the option of getting the free one. Then won't let be download the free version for free without giving them a credit card number.

Color Nook
My wife has until recently been under employed. As a result I've not been buying neat toys. Now that she is working full time again she insisted that she get a gadget for* me for Crhistmas. I've been interested in android as while I'd love to believe the n900 is the phone of the future I think Nokia lost it's chance it had with maemo. At the same time the N900 is still a good phone, and I'm hard press to justify a new phone just to hack on.
While the color is likely not the best e-reader due to lack of e-ink, size, and low battery life. It's a cheap high quality android tablet. Sure in 6 months it will be obsolete, but that will be true of anything I buy in 6 months. I'm looking forward to hacking it in the next few months. Worst case it's led display that likely won't give my wife head aches.
*Edit was "from me" which is completely untrue.
