[QUOTE=Filark;1643518]Hi there, jmgazer! Welcome to MobileRead!

I will be very interested to know how the PE fits in with your Nooks!

As Mokel said, your PE should come with Dingo, or possibly even Coyote or Badger, since Ermine is technically a Beta. Dingo is Android 1.6, Ermine takes you to Android 2.2.

It came this morning, and I like it, some things work better than either Nook, usually because of the buttons, the screen is as good! I installed Amazon Market, and a few other apps, but FBReader would not install; only reason for it is you can view on the Eink other than portrait. Came with Dingo, upgraded it to Ermine which works well, now I see a new upgrade to include more apps is available. I think I'll wait a few days to see how that works; I'm 81 and the mind is getting slower.

Jim
The Nooks are still good readers, which is what they were designed for.
