Clearly you haven't spent enough time with the nook color reader software.
Ok, "horribly broken" just might be a slight overstatement, but broken at the very least.

This is certainly a problem with the nc software, as it has trouble reading the covers of epubs that work just fine everywhere else. I've spent too much time pouring over exploded epubs comparing one where it did read the cover against one where it didn't and I can't spot the magic incantation that will make it see the covers consistently. If there's anything calibre can do to work around this until the nc gets bug-fixed, that would be fantastic. Otherwise I'm going to just use aldiko on my nc in the meantime.
