My wifey bought me a Nook Tablet for Xmas. After a few days of playing on it, I realized it sucked ass because it was locked to Barnes & Noble content, which is utterly pathetic. Poking around on the internet, I learned that the Nook Tablet is far superior to the Kindle Fire with respect to memory, screen resolution, hardware, etc - it's just hobbled by the shitty operating system.
Long story short, I recently "rooted" my Tablet, which means installing an Android operating system on it and making it a full Android tablet. This thing is absolutely amazing now - Amazon market, Android market, Netflix, MS Office, everything. It's just like an Ipad, only better (albeit with a smaller screen). I'm no hacker or techie, but just a little better than the average Joe.
Anyway, if you have a Nook Tablet, I can't tell you how freaking awesome this thing is once you unlock it by rooting it. It costs nothing more than the cost of a micro-SD card, which you will want anyway to store all your new programs. Follow these links to the letter, along with the videos in the links, and you can't go wrong:
