The most recent firmware upgrade (and someone correct me if I'm wrong) did not fix or allow you to read landscape, that's so basic.

And those are just a few. For a device which is being locked (no Android acces by default) and marketed as an ereader, that's unacceptable, at least for me. Most eink readers do landscape and they are cheaper.

By the way, I do not really want to start another useless debate about NC vs Galaxy Tab or iPad or whatever. I've noticed that people on this particular forum is not tolerant to critics or comments and take things personal, so I won't make additional comment or talk about something that is really obvious, like the stock NC.
I don't even know why you enter these threads, to be frank. Because yes, it is useless, pointless, and you come to a BN forum to trash the product and offend users of said product.

I rooted the Nookcolor that I share with my husband, but he asked me specifically NOT to use CM7 because he really likes the BN skin/reader. I don't, and I use Aldiko exclusively. But the beauty of using autonooter is that we can use the same device with two separate reader apps. See there? I don't have to trash the BN reader as being "garbage" and he doesn't scream at me to go and get a Galaxy Tab.

You're a really rude and disruptive presence in this particular forum.
