Yeah. I suppose you could give that overclocking kernel a shot. Just know that if the NC stays overclocked for more than 4 hours, that it might need service.

Well, I spent a lot of time playing with it and rooting it when I first got it, including surfing almost nothing but NC related Web sites! It was the same when I first got my smartphone. I'm finally at the point, though, where I have my NC mainly how I'd like. Plus, it was somewhat fun playing games on it, but since I got over the novelty of most games (including Angry Birds) on my smartphone before I got the NC, I don't find myself playing games much anymore on my NC. So, I'm settling back into using my NC mainly for reading and not just surfing/playing/tweaking.

It gave me a hankering for tablet computers, but when I looked at something like the Samsung Galaxy, I realized they are just not built for reading. The Kindle, Aldiko, etc. apps are great, but I like reading my NC one-handed, so I can lift a spoon or whatever with my other hand, and there's no way I could do that on a tablet not built to be an e-reader.
