The nook color does indeed present challenges. It is at the top of the list for problem reports around lack of resources.
What is happening is that it is failing to allocate memory for a cover thumbnail. The NC isn't out of memory. It is complaining that we have exceeded our budget for bitmaps. Our problem is that we do nothing with the thumbnails except hand them off to the Android OS, so we are left with the probability that something inside android is leaking thumbnail memory. The oracle of google agrees, saying that before Honeycomb, releasing bitmaps was "unpredictable" and could lead to spurious out of memory issues. Eventually it catches up, which is why reconnecting will sometimes work. Of course, sometimes it doesn't catch up, which is why CC must be closed and reopened.
What we will try to do is catch and ignore the error, replacing the cover with an empty box. Unfortunately this might not be possible if the error is considered "fatal". We will see...
