    Post A nice trip to B&N (Success Story)

    My job is nothing but customer service all day. Do I deal with people who drive me nuts and try to advantage of me? Of course! But that doesn't mean I let them know that. There are professional ways to handle those types of situations and then there are the ways that get your company talked...

    Post Help - Amazon App Won't Sync

    I rebooted my NC and tried to sync again. This time it at least recognized the book but still wouldn't download. I'm on the wi-fi at work so I'll try this again when I get home where I have more control over the amount of bandwidth available. ETA: I don't want to bump the thread but I do...

    Post A nice trip to B&N (Success Story)

    Nothing like lousy customer service to upset your customer base. When you receive lousy service you're more likely to talk about it with family and friends then you are if you receive good service. That's not to mention the fact that your spending money in their store/place of service is what...

    Post First news article I've seen about rooting a NC

    I think it's interesting that rooting is becoming a common enough term that it's making it's way to the regular news. That said, I hope B&N takes the approach that any publicity is good, even the unintended kind.

    Yes, the SD is inserted. The OS is running off the SD card and there appears to be plenty of memory. I'll have to double check that when I get home though.

    Post Powered Nook Color Stand the cheap way.

    That's a great idea! And a wonderful reuse of the box on the part of Barnes & Noble. Less waste.

    Post Need suggestions for a Nook Color bag

    Amazon.com had a decent selection of accessories for the NC, including cases. I haven't selected on yet but I need to. I never thought of trying a portable DVD player case but the length and width are similar and it leaves room for other things. Good idea.
