Does Nook Color Have Bluetooth?

Is there a BT Chip just waiting for proper software? Or is there no hope for BT?

There's some uncertainty about it at xda forums due to the 1-antenna design inside. No telling if they'll get it working or not.

I love having FM radio in my devices. It would be nice if it was activated. I like background noise while reading.
