That is the only known drawback. Nook hackers are looking for a workaround.
It appears that there is much to be gained (better web surfing, better PDF support, better word/excell support, games, tons of cool aps) for minimal loss in my mind.
But I want to make sure...
- Do I still have the same ability to purchase books , magazines at BN via the "store" link the nook has built in?
Yes, so long as you register the device before it's rooted. If you degregister the device while it is rooted you will not be able to register it again. However you can always resort to using the Android B&N App
- Do I still read books the same way (no need to dowload a new ap), or do I need to dowloand the BN android ap to read my books now?
Yes the nook apps work the same way.

After it is rooted the device looks identical with a few extra apps added in the "extras" folder.
The first thing I did however since I don't like the nook launcher is to install my own. I use ADWLancher and Zeam.
