see page 13
this is a unique link, I run into this page this morning for the first time ever, the application, although it is a very good one has no manual!!! I believe this is a manual somebody else wrote.

back to the topic: porting Android to this ereader would be a huge huge achievement. I do not thik it is possible without Onyx's help. If the drivers are included in the git repository then it might be possible.
As long as Nook Touch runs fine on Android, M92 should also be OK.
The only reason why I am not currently using ezpdf on Nook is the screen size. Otherwise will all the screen flickering it is OK

Edit: I just looked at the new features added since I last used the app- it now supports pen pressure ! This is rare to find even among the desktop apps. I know just two that have that.

with this pdf reader in the very moment when you have Androind ported to a 10" you have the prefect ereader for PDFs


I "stole" that from xda-developers - I find it pretty amazing:

Apps that work on my Nook Touch :

- Shift puzzle game
- Tacticon (turn-based strategy game)
- AnDrawing
- AnkiDroid flashcards
- Concise Oxford English Dictionary
- FreeNote
- RealCalc
- SetCPU (300-800 MHz)
- Black White Board Game
- Landrule (turn-based strategy game)
- Mindjet for Android (Mindmapping software)
- Reversi (Blind Logic)


-Chess (Tojo) [IMO the best chess app for Nook. {2 player hotseat!}]

- Ebooka PDF , ezPDF Reader (IMO best pdf viewers. Tested every pdf viewer in the Market)
