Books as Apps?

You know this also opens up the concept of selling apps as books or augmented books that are also applications for the Nook.

I think one of the things traditional media is fighting is how to continue being viewed as having value in a world of new media/platforms.

How many of us would pay a little more on the cover price of a book if it was also an application or came with embedded/usable/useful applications?

On another vein, this thing is running Android...how long before someone hacks it? Probably not long. If BN doesn't implement this, I sure hope some crafty hacker does/will.
