Ordering a Nook this week?

[Irulan]

You can buy a preloaded rooting SD card for the tablet at Newegg for about $50. If they are selling them it can't be illegal.

The clincher for me was the whole BN apps thing.
1. you can't log onto Android without hacking the device
2. "thousands" of apps? My a**s
3. apps that are free via android or apple cost money through BN.
3. apps that you would expect to find, such as New York Times, Facebook, Huff post and so on, don't exist.
4. The scrabble app won't allow you to play yourself. WTF?

I will wait and get a real, full function tablet.
