After about 11 months since I bought my NC on its first available days and after very heavy use, some points:
- never rooted it since I use it as an ebook reader (several hours a day pretty much daily for 11 months now) with the occasional use for internet stuff on the go; nothing else
- never used anything else for reading ebooks since I bought it
- never used a SD card since I have only books on it
- read tons of pdf's too and the experience while decent before, improved markedly to excellent since i bought the ezpdf app once they made it available without needing a card
- color added unexpected depth and now it became a 3rd deal breaker for any new reader after touch and internal light
Awesome device and I plan to use it until it breaks; then we'll see if i still remain with Nook or go Fire - as companies I prefer Amazon by a mile over BN, so if the Fire performs as expected i would take it any day; never got a Kindle since touch and internal lights are deal breakers for me, but Fire will do just well
- as negatives - the BN read in-store read sucks big time so I used very rarely; the BN e-store sucks big time so I never used it, but as you may notice that has nothing to do with the NC itself which is excellent
