The first thing I'd say is get a correct resolution image (this isn't an iPad and isn't 1024x1024). Re-sizing for display rather than actually resizing to true 1-to-1 pixels is always quirky, even on a high-powered Windows PC or Mac. Frankly, this seems to describe the problem you're referring to. As for movies, I've yet to read anything that says the NOOKcolor does movies well. Then again, I also think that watching movies on a hand-held device is moronic... I have a 46" TV at home, why do I want to watch movies on a tiny screen in my lap? I've had movie-capable laptops for 10 years and never once watched a movie on them.

Anyway.... I'm curious, but haven't seen or heard of these problems.
