Huh??? The Nook Color is second to none in the looks department and it's build quality is just as good. As far as hardware is concerned, it actually has a better display than the Galaxy Tab. The processor is a bit slower 800MHz vs 1GHz and onboard storage is half at 8GB vs 16GB; but neither of these hamper my needs. Stock NC's run Android 2.1 with promised upgrade to 2.2. Rooted, it runs 2.2 just like the Galaxy Tab.

You paint a picture of a very crippled device. The facts prove that assessment wrong. Like I said, I'm not going to waste money for a device that only does marginally better than one at half the price.
