The stupid NookColor--not HD--works fine. Naturally, they had to screw that up. B&N, if it ain't broke, don't FIX IT!

ENDLESS. IT'S BLOODY ENDLESS.

A good discussion of the why of Publisher Defaults is here

and for this the Nook Color should be working roughly the same as the HD as long as you are using the latest firmware on the Color.
