Kindle for Android on CM7 without registration, gapps, or marketplace?

I am considering getting a Nook Color to read books with color illustrations, and maybe magazines. I've also seen some posts that say the out of box Nook can not be used at all without activation, which includes registration and agreement to some objectionable (to me) terms of "service".

I've also read that the Nook Color can boot CM7 from a microSd card without any modifaction of the Nook at all. Does this apply to a Nook Color straight out of the box? (No activation, no registration) Can CM7 be installed to emmc on on unactivated Nook?

I also do not want to install any google apps or get anything from any marketplace. Is it possible to get and install Kindle for Android on CM7 without going through a marketplace? How about FBreader and/or Coolreader?

Same for ssh server and client. With an ssh server on the Nook, can I scp book files directly to a Nook directory where reader apps can open them?

I have been using linux eclusively at work and home for over 16 years and have no Android experience at all.

Thanks for any help.
