I recently heard on the 'goodreader' podcast that the Nook Color was now being released with a modification that limits users to upload only 1 GB of their own content. The remaining space must be used to hold B&N purchases. On a recent trip to the US (I'm from Canada) I asked a salewoman at Barnes and Noble if this was true and she didn't know what I was talking about....that being said she also never let me fully complete what I was saying and kept talking over me so I am not sure if she really heard what I was asking. She just kept repeating "8 gigs, upgradedable to 32 gigs" over and over again like Rainman. Have any of you heard of this new change? I could see it being true since everyone is going Root crazy with the thing but if it is true it will most defiently turn me off from buying one.

Thanks everyone!
