Nook Color getting more apps, possibly Flash in April
Barnes & Noble’s Nook Color ereader has seengreat success due to its low price and Android hackability. Turns out that it will soon be a bit more useful without hacking by means of some “exciting new applications” and possibly Flash. The news were first broken by a delusional shopping channel and then officially confirmed in form of a TL;DR press release that masterfully doesn’t really say anything (aside from lots and lots of self congratulatory stuff, of course), especially not about Flash. This is great news and should definitely make the Nook Color more attractive to “normal people” who don’t like to “hack” their devices, at least if Barnes & Noble doesn’t raise the price to the shopping network’s claimed retail value of $504.
