I was, indeed, looking at that. It was next to the $250 price tag.

I've heard that a rooted nook color is GREAT, and I heard that a rooted nook color has problems (more to do with android, I guess).

Android 3 is supposed to be coming, but I'm betting the price tags attached to the newer stuff will be higher than the older stuff.

I intend to use it as a reference library, and I'll be paying for it myself. That plus all the knocking around it'll get make me reluctant to spend much money on whatever I buy.

What I want is something like an iPad or it's successor. With I'm hoping for, though, is something cheap enough that I won’t cry if I drop it. Or on it.
