Comment Re:The Nook is/was excellent (Score 1) 321
I love the nook hardware; the software is the problem and rooting never worked well enough so that I could get another ereader installed. The builtin reader often silently refuses to open books - it just ignores touches and does nothing. The kindle I had worked great, but I ditched it for the nook to get away from the proprietary format and move to the epub standard. Instead, I'm having to read on the Nexus, which is ok inside, but useless outside in the sun. A nook with functional open software would be great...
