    Thread Download history?

    Suddenly, I see no history for any downloads to the A500. Also, during (after) the download, I get a text box with a choice of [open] or [dismiss]. With a file manager I can see the files are in the download folder. I've already cleared the data and the cache, so... any suggestions?

    Post Tablet Satchel Bag

    I found a Mobil-IT "Ultimate Travel Essentials" Netbook Caddy, at Office Depot that works very well. The only problem is that it may be discontinued now...

    Post Very Low Profile Bluetooth Keyboards...?

    I just ordered a Spider E-Series to try out, along with an Arkon stand. Figured that for 36 bucks it was worth a try, even though one of the two Amazon reviews wasn't all that great. Newegg, OTOH, had four out of four good reviews (although they were for iPhone and Win 7 use). We shall see...

    Post Why are so many returning their A500's?

    The A500, for me, is an expensive gadget. However, it's a gadget that I'll be keeping. USB host mode on a tablet, with NTFS support? What's not to like?

    Post Making your Nook Display 90% Fingerprint Free

    I made the mistake one time of confusing Aircraft canopy cleaner/polish for windshield cleaner. However, after 30 minutes of buffing, buffing, and buffing, for six months even the BUGS would slide off that glass. Hmmm, I wonder... :cool:

    Post Nook Color Testimonials. Post Nook stories here!

    I bought mine specifically to root, and for one reason: the ability to carry technical documents, and to be able to edit them. Since then, I've found the NC strengths to be the above, plus simple web browsing, calendar/appointments, gmail, RSS, and News feeds. The major drawbacks, IMO, are...

    Post Any update on froyo from b&n?

    And if you do a little more searching, you'll find out the original article has been thoroughly debunked and everybody else "monkey-posted" from the original incorrect source. Q1 2011 is all B&N has ever indicated.

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Gee, sounds like the simplest thing is that "you have a netbook, I'd like a NOOKcolor"... that is, unless you have the netbook/laptop/etc. as well. Lucky me, we both have desktops, we both have netbooks, we both have Classic Nooks, and my wife still doesn't mind that I have the NC, 'cause she...
