[Q] Audio via USB?

---

Since the Nook Simple Touch does not have an audio jack, it's a deal breaker for me.

However, might there be some way to route audio via usb -> 1/8th TRS? If so, I would definitely jump on the device and buy it as soon as I get some money to spend on new toys.

Bluetooth maybe?

Well since the Nook Color hardware is so close to the N2E, since they have working bluetooth, I bet it won't be too long until we see the N2E with it as well.

Bluetooth is great, but it has quality issues. Is there any way to get audio straight out of USB?

I suppose giving our nook bluetooth would be without sense - why ebook reader would have it?

Well I believe the SoC includes Bluetooth hardware. Since it's there why not have that ability on the Nook as well. Enabling Bluetooth could solve general lack of audio issues for some people.

I thought I saw it somewhere that it's concluded Nook STR does NOT have function BT?

This week at Walmart I saw a USB / Bluetooth adapter. I believe you would need a micro-USB adapter to connect it to the Nook. But as I was looking at it, I was thinking of this thread and wondering if you could make the physical connections work, would the nook end up with Bluetooth capability.

Any thoughts on if this would work or not ?

not bleutooth ...

the thread seems to be going into bleutooth mode...
Was wondering if connectiing a headphone with a microusb adapter would help get the audio?

like say this micro usb to headphones adapter

same as catzilla this would really help me decide on the nook touch

People seem to get it working with the nook colour, so it may be for the touch as well.
First step is to get USB host mode
