I still respectfully disagree with the comparison for two reasons:

1. Price
2. The Nook Color is locked down as an ereader which slows it down considerably and strips away functions. For example, using Zeam launcher, Set CPU, Dolphin Browser HD, Aldiko (for Landscape epub viewing), etc. changes things considerably.

Don't you agree that out of fairness, if you are going to compare them as full tablets, you should at least compare a rooted nook color to the Galaxy Tab? And also, when you pay twice as much as something isn't it expected to be a better product?

All I'm looking for is making a comparison based on price/value and also the full capabilities of each.
So, you posted a video or link from a Galaxy Tab that takes an eternity to boot, you also said that based on that video you believe the differences in functionality are not too big, but now you are saying the NC does not surpass the GT? Frankly speaking, I don't understand.

If you show that video to someone who is expecting to buy or get a Galaxy Tab (fair assumption because this thread is by no means, a comparison one) do you really think that the person is going to get a good feeling? That's why I just replied and post another video with mine.
