To All,

Well, I took the leap and flawlessly changed over to CM7RC4 and it all (apparently) works! I had previously used autonooter 3.0 on my NC1.1.

Still trying to figure it all out and having fun doing so.

My first three apps that I d/l and installed were a simple notepad, Kindle for Android, and Nook for Android.

D/L my current "libraries" for both and am back in the "reading" business complete with an unexpected "turning page" animation!

The only thing I am going to miss is the BN in-store reading option which I will learn to temporarily live without. Visiting my local BN today and will see what happens when I try and establish an in-store connection.

My next step is to wait for the autonooter update for the NC 2.2 upgrade and reroot to that and then do a 2.3 boot from the sd card to regain the best of all worlds.

Bring on a decent RC version of Honeycomb!!!

For those of you interested in CM7RC4, the "Huskermania" video is now up:

I also referred to:

http://briefmobile.com/how-to-cyanogenmod-7-goodness-for-the-nook-color

This is a somewhat more simple process than the video, but doesn't explain how to "install the two zips" while the video clearly does. They work well together.

Not seeing any wifi issues using the unit at home with e-mail and browser functions reasonably fast.

Follow-up: Just transferred a copy to my sd card of "Tunes of Glory" that I had converted to mp4 format and it played perfectly with no visual stuttering or audio lag.

If the film runs fine and the browser speed appears to be more than adequate, is the any reason to use the 2.3 overclock option to bump up to 925mhz?

However, I did notice that when I connected the unit via the NC cable to my desktop, the NC indicated that there was a "USB connection" but the NC does not appear in Windows Explorer which it always did previously. Had to remove the sd card and copy the film directly onto it via the one of the USB ports on my desktop.
