If everyone's holidays were like mine, they'd sell a ton of this one. BTW, the wife is using the app on her Nook Tablet and its pretty good.

Not sure why they closed off Apps. Its the worse thing you can do in the Android community. People will start to recommend that folks buy other products instead.  They had a good thing going and now the people in marketing ruined it.  Will have to return mine. Frustrated that I don't have access to Google Music, Google Books, Audible can't load my own videos to watch.  Was going to use this as my everyday tablet but now will have to return and Buy something more expensive.  I bought this because BN had reputation for openness which would have made me buy more of their products but this is just an exercise in frustration at this point

I am totally feeling the same thing right now.  I can understand that you don't want me to go to Amazon to purchase books, but there is no reason to not allow the Nook tablet access to the android app market.  I think I will be taking the nook back and getting a Kindle Fire by this weekend.

I would love to have the choice to pick the apps I want instead of the really crappy apps on BN.  What a joke.  There isn't even one for Facebook?  Really?  My smartphone has more functionality than this.

I agree that shutting down the ability to side load apps was a very bad idea.  The B&N app selection is pathetic.  The NT native email app doesn't support Exchange mail, which means that B&N made a decision to strip exchange support out of the Android code when it developed the NT code.  Why do that?  So they could sell an Exchange app of course.  But now the ONE app available for Exchange email is not supported on the NT by the developer. B&N has taken a nice tablet and turned it into a reader.  If this is the quality of decision making applied to the rest of the business, I can see why results have been disappointing.
