I rooted my Nook color and now I have no free time, I can't seem to put it down. Checking out apps like crazy, reading comics in the Comixology app. This is better than my Android phone hands down. Granted no 3G but I usually connected my phone with Wi-Fi anyway.
Word of advice to anyone thinking about rooting read everything twice before attempting to root your Nook. One nice thing is, it seems impossible to brick the Nook.
Even though I blame Scion for making me want to root my Nook and lose all my free time

, I would like to thank her for all the info she provided on these forums.
