Yes -- I've added some simple folder-browsing/cover flow in recent revisions of Trook. The code turned out to be relatively minimal, and it seemed to fit somewhat naturally in the UI, so in it went, and here is how it looks.



A little bonus if you use Calibre to manage your books -- it uses the same approach to place cover images; so if you copy your books to the Nook via Calibre, you get cover images at the same time. I'm sorry to say that I'm not able to get at the images for B&N books (sigh) as it is stashed away in a more obscure way, but one of these days...

As stangri also points out, a good library manager is something other nookdevs are actively thinking about; so [along with everyone here, actually :-) ] I'm looking forward to seeing some great ideas and apps over the coming weeks.
