Whoever thinks that the Nook Color is a viable, mass-market alternative to the iPad is horribly misguided. It's marketed by Barnes and Noble as an E-reader, NOT an Android tablet. People who know about the capabilities of one after rooting are in the large minority of potential purchasers.
Plus, as previously stated in this thread, if it was even just MEETING B&N's sales forecasts, they wouldn't be selling huge quantities at a discount on eBay...
I would say a good number of Nook Color buyers are buying it with explicit intent of rooting it and using it as a tablet.
