I am very happy with my current nook as an ereader. I am getting the color nook for:
  • reading magazines w/color
  • experimenting with some of the new animated color content (kids stuff, etc)
  • graphic novels, comic books, etc.
  • movies
  • pdf support, pinch zoom, etc, great for work
  • reading books sometimes
  • picture galleries (dogs, bikes, vacations) to show friends at work
  • experimenting with multi-touch interfaces
  • random android hacking/experimenting in java

At work they discourage paper copies of documents for various iso9000 style reasons. Drives me nuts as my work is already taking up 3-5 terminals, a code editor and a few browser windows. I don't want to supposedly be keeping a iso process document open live from our doc store open. So I will open them on my color nook if/when I need to.

I may port the app we use for iphones to schedule movies on DVRs over to android as well.
