Does this one build in overclocking? That might be worth it.
I now have Deep Blue's v04 image running on my NC. I have the microSD
formated so that I can use all 16GB...and 13GB of that is for the sdcard
storage. Some apps won't appear in the market, but there is a spoof
method for that that I need to implement.
The NC is a suprisingly good tablet. I'm just not sure if it is enough
to keep me from wanting an iPad 2 or iPad 3.

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.

Subject: Re: [H] NookColor ==> Android 3 (HoneyComb) Tablet?
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.

I have the Motorola Xoom which is HoneyComb based. If you are just reading
books I wouldn't get the Android, it is still very buggy. Having said that I
do really like it, it is responsive. The dual cores help it multitask much
better than my old Android phone. Once the bugs are all ironed out it I feel
it is way better than my iPad. The one thing I still feel is inferior to the
iPad are the media players but that could be because I haven't found the
best one yet.
