Another CM7 Modder here.  Best purchase I made all year.

So are they still expecting two new Nook Color models...a 7 inch and 10 inch?  Or is it just the 7 inch replacement?

Nook Color General Rooting Board / Re: N2A vs. CM7
« on: September 29, 2011, 07:08:00 PM »
I think you're right in that Ice Cream Sandwich comes out it'll be available for N2A cards.  What I'm not sure about are the minimum specs of ICS.   Will it run on the current Nook Color or will we need a faster device.  Also will it take advantage of hardware acceleration on the NC?  One of the problems that people have had putting Honeycomb on the NC has been the lack of hardware graphics acceleration.  The program itself funs fine but the home screens are laggy because all the rendering is being done in the software.   Has this been fixed yet?   I think the N2A card is a good option for those that want the flexibility of going back to their standard NC OS.   It also let's you use CM7 without voiding the warranty on your NC since you're not overwriting it...you're just doing an external boot.

I'd definitely like to see an HDMI out.  Makes it so much easier to show stuff on a larger screen.

Nook Color General Discussion Board / Favorite App Store
« on: September 29, 2011, 07:04:17 PM »
Just curious what forum members use most to buy their apps.   Android Market, Amazon App store, Nook Color app store?  What's the positive and negatives of each?

The Lounge: Off Topic Forum / Re: new Amazon Fire Tablet announced

You make a good point rohiguchi!  The Nook Color has been rooted a long time ago and a lot of us, especially here on the forum are using CM7 or some other full Android Rom and not the dumbed down NOOK OS.   The Kindle Fire hasn't been rooted yet...heck...it's not even out and we don't know how or when it might be rooted.  I'm not sure how pro-rooting Amazon is gonna be or if they'll have a locked bootloader or not on the Fire.  I'm sure it'll get rooted eventually anyway once the Developers get their hands on it, especially the guys at rootzwiki and XDAdev.   Personally I like having CM7 because I don't have to go through BN's store to load books and apps etc on and can use the android market.  The Fire doesn't give access to the android market...you have to use Amazon's everything.  Only time will tell if the Kindle Fire ends up being a favorite of the custom rom community like the nook color.   I'm sure BN isn't standing still though.  The hardware on the Kindle Fire is fairly basica.  No SD slot or hdmi or 3g and only 2 point multitouch.  Plenty of room for the new Nook Color to outdo them in the hardware dept imho.

Nook Color Games / Re: Nook Color Best Games
« on: July 18, 2011, 09:56:52 PM »
There are all kinds of great games you can play on your Nook Color but which ones are the 'best' is a tough question to know as it depends on your taste in games!  It also depends on if your Nook Color has been rooted and has a full version of android on it or if you are using the stock Nook Color which still has games but not nearly as many.   Angry Birds is always popular but some others that are really cool are:

Angry Birds Rio
Angry Birds Seasons
Armageddon Squadron
Cordy
EVAC HD
Fruit Ninja
Guerilla Bob
SpeedX 3D
Gun Bros
Raging Thunder 2
Reckless Racing

and lots more depending on what you're into.

Nook Color OS / Re: Nook Color rooting
« on: July 18, 2011, 09:52:18 PM »
Rooting your Nook Color enables you to flash a custom rom with a full fledged operating system such as Android making your Nook Color a full android tablet.  You can then download and use any of thousands of apps many of which you can't use on the standard out of the box Nook Color.  You can also do other things such as turn up the speed of the processor to make your tablet act more responsively.   Rooting your Nook Color is a relatively easy procedure to do but just remember it will void your warranty from Barnes and Noble so make sure you're ok with that.

No the Nook Color does not have a HDMI port so sadly you can not show video on a tv screen or monitor.

Yes, the Nook Color has a MicroSD card slot that let's you upgrade memory up to 32GB.
