Don't be fooled into thinking those cheaper tablets are equivalent to the Nook Color, because they aren't. In fact, they're inferior. If anything, the Nook Color gives you more bang for your buck than cheap, knock-offs like the Velocity Cruz and Pandigital Novel.

Check the displays, for instance. The Nook Color has essentially the same display as the iPad, only smaller:

Nook Color: premium 7" capacitive multi-touch IPS 1024 x 600 @ 169 PPI

Cruz / Novel: standard 7" resistive touch TFT 800 x 600

The same pretty much applies to the rest of the specs, with the cheaper tablets generally using lower end components to cut costs.
