Steven, you seem to be making the opposite point, IMO. The Nook Color is really nothing more than an App running on a tablet. And those multi-function features you imagine would most effectively be done by additional apps that work with the reader app: the scrapbook app, the recipe-holder app, etc. With a dedicated reader device, you are dependent on the device maker to add the features you want, vs. having thousands of app developers making compatible recipe apps that you can choose the best from.
