Great for B&N. I believe the Kindle is sold at Target?

I bought a Nook and I really liked it, but it was the newer reversion which wasn't Rootable (at the time any ways) So I returned it.

What did you gain by rooting it? Can't think of anything else I'd want it to do.

Allows better organization of non Nook ebooks, also can combine nook and non nook ebooks into 1 list with coverflow for all the covers. For the organization alone I think it's worth it. But mine was 1.4.1 and unrootable. It also add's Pandora & RSS feeds.

I wonder what happened to the Nook 2?

Huh... that could be useful I suppose. I'll have to look into that.
