Dropbox was an app always available in the nook app store even before B&N became a part of the borg and opened up to officially supporting Google Play. In fact, even with the new Google-poisoned firmware update, you can still download "pure" nook apps including Dropbox and the Dolphin browser (which has Flash support that the Nook HD/HD+ no longer supports. There WAS a flash plugin for the native Nook HD web browser - not labeled as such - but since Google chrome muscled out the native Nook browser, Flash went buh-bye on the Web on the HD.)

(Re-looking at your list, you'll need Google Play to get Google Docs or the Kindle app, but all of the other capabilities you list were there on a NookHD pre-Google Play.)
