Check the forum regarding cyanogenmod on the nookcolor. I've been running this on my last 3 android phones and really like the additional speed and functions available. I've been considering getting a tablet myself, but only once the mod is available and stable. lopaka ________________________________ From: Anthony Q.

What I'm trying to do is get a couch computer....or in this case, a couchpad. So, I got this nookcolor...if you had a microSD card to it, you can set it up to boot honeycomb off the SD card without bothering the internal 8 GB card that hold the NookColor version of Android. So I have them both setup now. The only problem is the HoneyComb version is, as you noted, incomplete. One problem is that I can't use the entire 16 GB SD card to store stuff. Seems to only allow 1.25GB of storage space for apps, data, and stuff. Also, it doesn't play video well at all. But with only 1.26 GB of storage, you can't do much else without having to worry about space. But I do like the browser on this thing. Better than the one on the NookColor by far. I could probably do most of what I want on the regular Nook, though, but you get zero apps (well, you get an handful). But no Angry Birds, Maps, and a few other goodies for Android. Nook gives you only a tiny handful of good apps. With HoneyComb, I can get Kindle stuff and Nook, DropBox, PDF, TIVO and Google TV, etc. Angry Birds looks good on the Nook, too. The 6inch wide screen (in landscape) is easy to read on the nook if you set fonts and things correctly. There is no easy way to switch back & forth from NookColor to HoneyComb, though, sayou have to remove the SD card from the NookColor to boot back into NookColor. If Honeycomb were more complete and if the hack were more fully worked, I'd make the switch and install Honeycomb on the Internal SD, but no way am I doing that now.
