Yes, I strongly disagree with your comment, but let's no start a debate about it.
Most of the relatives or friend I know, rooted it. And if you browse these forums, you'll see a decent amount of posts, actually much more than anything else, asking how to root it or what to download after rooting.
However, and like I said on my previous post, B&N makes more money selling digital books, not the actual hardware itself. I doubt the NC has pushed digital sales good enough to call it a success.
On the other side, I've seen very few Sony or Kindle users that rooted their devices, we are actually quite happy with the installed firmware (with the exception of DXG maybe). Of course, those are not tablets, but dedicated readers for digital books and sales. NC is exactly that out of the box, a dedicated ereader.
