The fact that the nook color doesn't have access to the Android market place is more to the fact that it is a dedicated eReader.
It's User interface is all about ereading and features that are just not possible on eink.
I don't know what Barnes and Noble did to you but man you just pump out more lies and misinformation. this is crazy.
and you seriously need to stop confusing people about ePub
Google does NOT USE proprietar DRM on ePub
Fictionwise does NOT use proprietary DRM on ePub
Kobo does NOT use Proprietary DRM on ePub
Borders does NOT use proprietary DRM on ePub
Librarys do not use Proprietary DRM on ePub
they all use a ADOBE Digital Reader which is supported on ALL devices except for the Kindle.
But you know this already but yet you still keep telling people ALL online bookstores slap their OWN DRM on their books.
People use these forums for help.

Yes, the Nook Color is locked in order to force people to buy from Barnes and Noble store. They make zero money if you to Google and any other place and download a book for free. That is the main reason why they do not unlocked the device.
I am not confusing anyone.
The true is that the advantage is on books which has been formatted (epub or whatever other format) without DRM protection. If you buy from Barnes and Noble, you cannot read your books in any other place unless you break the encryption, which put those books at same condition that any other azw format or Kindle book.
Whatever comes or is in epub, without DRM encryption, can be read in a Kindle via Calibre conversion! It takes 60 seconds to do it!
