I think the app store is a cop-out. This is just an e-reader...they aren't becoming facebook. The idea seems trendy at the moment but I doubt it will fly. They also have an obligation to thoroughly test it lest it bring down the device.
I develop software and it's all sounds easier than it is. I'd imagine that they have some big platofrm challenges in presenting a robust plugin interface that is both performant and safe. I hardly want the proverbial "blue screen" on my nook...though it would not be blue...LOL!
