That isn't necessarily a concern. I rooted mine two days after Christmas but I can easily unroot and then perform a factory restore to restore the device back to out-of-the-box condition and no one will be the wiser. It takes all of about ten minutes. Anyway, I'm just saying don't let voiding the warranty stop you. If I need to return mine under warranty, I'll just unroot, restore and send it back with them being none the wiser.
I hate the thought of being shackled to B&N's measly little selection of apps (relatively speaking, of course)
