    Post FREE Case At Best Buy, previous puchases apply

    I bought my NC and got the industriell easel case. I returned that yesterdaay and got the M-EDGE Latitude cover. It's for the nook but it fits the nc. Its snug but I like the zipper and it has a pocket where I can keep my micro sd card adapter.

    Post [Q] Cheap Neoprene Case for Nook Color

    I think the one you got from ebay is the same as the one I'm looking at but more expensive. Glad to know it works for you!

    Post Otterbox Commuter Coming

    Oh man that thing looks nice! I wonder how access to the micro SD card works. The photos didn't give much of a hint. Also, how does it work to allow your headphones to still plug in? I know it's got a hole and a "plug" but isn't the case thick enough to prevent headphones from going all the way...

    Post [Q] Cheap Neoprene Case for Nook Color

    That's good to know. I like that it can enclose the device completely or, like my wife does, you can just slip it in without folding over the top. That's perfect for tossing it in my backpack. Anyone else have experience with this or any other cheap neoprene case?

    Thread [Q] Cheap Neoprene Case for Nook Color

    I've been shopping around for a cheap case solution for the Nook Color and I came across this The dimensions are 8.3x6 in The nook color is 8.1x5 in (right?)

    Post Save $10 at BN.com - Groupon $10=$20 02/04/11-02/08/11

    Does anyone know if you can stack these? I know it says you can only buy one per person, but if I buy one and my wife buys one, can we use them at the same time for the same purchase? I read through the terms but I couldn't find anything about it.

    Post [For Original Nook (NOT NOOK COLOR)] Software Updates - Version 1.5

    The shelves thing would be nice, though. Why haven't they implemented this on the NC? Unless they have... Ignorance, my old nemesis!

    Post B&N to block rooting on future devices?

    So I've been putting off getting the NC for a while, but if there is ANY chance this could lead to serious setbacks in the rooting process I might be motivated to go get one immediately. And I realize the rationale behind B&N NOT trying to block root access, but I know first hand how little...

    Oh man, I cannot WAIT for this! Still saving my pennies for the NC, but when I get it this'll be the only way I transfer files. Thanks!

    Post [UPDATE] [WIDGET] NOOK color power button v0.4.2

    Could someone explain to me what the draw is? I don't own a NC yet, but I'm interested in what makes this an attractive app. I'm genuinely interested, but I can't find a way to type my question without it sounding sarcastic. Thanks!

    Post [APP] Samba Fileshare - Wireless access to Android

    This sounds awesome! So if I'm understanding correctly, you can drop movies, music, and data files from your computer to the NC without hooking up the cable? This is something I'd be very interested in when I get my NC.

    Post Visited an Barnes and Noble store last night.

    This is a smart move for them. I like the atmosphere in most Barnes & Noble stores I've been to and I'd like the functionality of trying before buying. I personally don't own any eBooks at all yet, but when I start buying I intend to purchase more from B&N than anywhere else, even after rooting...

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Yup. I just bought her a nice necklace for Valentine's/Butter-her-up Day. Thanks for all the suggestions on here. I've got my gameplan and almost all my money saved for it, so it won't be too long before I've got the Nook in my hands. Thanks again, guys! Can't wait to see firsthand all the...

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Excellent. This kind of stuff will be great! Thanks! Sad, but true. One more question: Would this thing work to read or watch movies while she sunbathes? We just got season passes to our local waterpark, so if she could use it to read while she sunbathes that would be great. I know it's got...

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Are you married? Do you intend to stay that way for any significant length of time? Priorities: Wife, then everything else. Regardless, I'm liking the recipe angle. Any other suggestions like this would be very welcome!

    Wow. This thread quickly devolved from helpful pointers about features my wife might like (which is what I came looking for) into... something else. I appreciate those who contributed and helped me out.

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Yes employed. Yes she buys things. No, they're not $250 things. Honestly I'm not getting this thing without her approval regardless of financial situation. Not worth it.

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    Were I to take the tactic you're suggesting and "grow a pair and just buy it," my wife would immediately take that pair, cut them off and stuff them in her purse so they'd always be close at hand to remind me what happens when I listen to people on the internet. And she'd return the nook. No, my...

    Post [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    The netbook is very much hers (except for some low-level tinkering I do like installing Maxivista), but I have my own laptop so the "you get one I get one" argument is out. I will keep up on the gift-giving, though. Thanks! Man, if only she weren't so'darn good looking! Favorite...

    Thread [Q] Need help convincing my wife

    I've decided on purchasing the Nook Color. I've been saving my pennies, but my wife is still not sold on the idea. She loves blogs and facebook, and she loves the netbook I got her for Christmas, but other than that she's not seduced by the raw technological possibility of the NC in the same way...

    Post Best NC case?

    Also wondering about silicone cover I've seen all the posts and links, but nothing sits well with me. I love using the device "naked" but I don't want to risk it. I'll probably end up getting a neoprene sleeve to stuff it in and a screen protector, but I've wondered about the silicone...

    Post Solar Wind Live Wallpaper on Nook

    A little disappointed I'm just a bit disappointed because when I read "Solar Wind" I half expected it to be related to the old DOS game Solar Winds. Cool background though!
