I am lucky, losing the ability to read in-store for an hour is not a very big loss compared to the gains from rooting my Nook Color.
My closest B & N store is an hour away (48 miles one way). I get up there maybe once every month or two. I use the "get a sample" much more than I use the in-store preview.
The number of valuable apps far outweighs the loss of 1 part of it. I like being able to have all of my books (Amazon and B&N) on one device :-)
I will keep an eye on this thread to find out if there is a way to get the in-store reading back at some point in the future...
Oh yeah, and that Angry Birds game? It is really a time vacuum! LOL!
