This works very nicely for rooting - I would read the entire thread carefully, then download TouchNooter 1.6.2.4 and have a go - it worked for me!

BTW, there is very little probability of bricking the STR - you may also want to try the following:

Hold down the two lower page turn buttons and the power button - let go the page turn buttons after five seconds - this will put the STR into complete recovery and reset to factory default condition - here's the thread, again on XDA:

Recovery.
Turn off.
Push power button and hold, then press and hold bottom left and right page buttons for 5 seconds.

I just want to point out that if you bypass the B&N registration you will not be able to buy books or sync your library. The nook touch will only work with sideloaded content.
