Okay, I've been a Nook Classic user and lover since it came out. I have been resisting getting a Color but I'm 99% positive that I'll be getting one for Christmas. So, I have a few questions I wanted to pose to the already using Nook Color crowd.

1- One of the things I'm really worried about not having is the 3G network for books. How often has it become a problem? I really like not needing a Wifi connection.

2- I've read here that the battery life sucks. Does anybody have any tricks other than airplane mode?
1. I have 133 books on my NC that I have yet to read. I do not need 3G to immediately download another book when I am not at home.

2. 8 Hours is a a very good battery life for an LCD tablet. You cannot compare e-ink and LCD battery life. . Even the Kindle fire has an 8 hours battery life. And most cheap Android tablets have ony 3 to 4 hours.
