Just received this case today.
Initial thoughts: Good protection but bulky.
Fairly easy to install, place silicon skin over device and then plastic case over that.
Only issues with install are getting the port covers into the right position. They seem to get stuck under the plastic. Once you work them out, they open and close easily.
Covers for headphone jack, microUSB jack, and uSD card slot. (I like the access to the uSD card slot without removing the case!)
Easy to activate power and volume controls.
Dimensions:
Nook Color
127.5 mm wide
205 mm tall
11 mm thick
With Trident Aegis case:
137.5 mm wide
212 mm tall
18 mm thick
It adds a considerable size to the device, 10 mm in width is noticeable, and more than 50% in thickness.
To those of you who are used to using the NC with no cover, it will be a bit of an adjustment. I don't think it is anything more than any other case however.
With the Trident Aegis case, it still fits in my Belkin Kindle 2 Neoprene case (just barely)

It comes with a screen protector and display cleaning cloth. (I did not use the screen protector, as I have the B&N Anti Glare)
Plastic cover has a satin finish like the back of the Nook Color, not glossy. Comfortable to hold and not slippery.
The raised silicon logo that comes through the hole in the back gives it some friction to keep it from slipping on a hard surface.
Silicon is a bit of a dust magnet.
