Not to be pedantic, but... confusion ahead for me. Pardon me.

You don't have to buy B&N books for a Nook - both the Nook and NookColor support side-loading. And a rooted NookColor supports downloading catalogs via Calibre2opds. Granted, B&N books are MORE accessible. And also granted, if you intend to side-load your library, the 3G becomes much less useful.

I don't use a Kindle, so forgive me if this is ignorant, but Nook and NookColor have various custom options, and you can put your name in it - it's registered to your account and you can name the device whatever you want. Is that not what you mean?

I know there are wars being fought online about the Kindle/B&N libraries, but I've got 300+ nookbooks and I've yet to find anything that WASN'T offered on the B&N site but WAS offered as a Kindle book. My taste isn't universal, though.
