[QUOTE="poolie, post: 185857, member: 837"] For Christmas I bought my wife a Nook Color which she uses more for sitting on the couch and surfing the web and facebooking than reading books, as I expected she would. I've played with it a little and though I'd like to have one, but $249 has been a little out of my range. The other day I saw where if you buy it from the Barnes & Noble eBay store, there's a coupon to get $50 off. I had to bite. It showed up yesterday. For those that don't already know, the operating system is a crippled version of the Android OS... but that can be fixed. Within a couple hours of taking it out of the box I had rooted it and brought it back to full Android status using a tool called auto-nooter. It still functions as the intended e-book reader, but now has the Market app installed so you can download and install pretty much any available Droid app. Surfing on a 7" tablet is SO much better than my phone screen.
