How To Root Your B&N NookColor

We’ve seen Angry Birds running on the new e-reader from Barnes & Noble, showing that it’s capable of more than its stock offerings, but the party isn’t over yet. Some developers from NookDevs.com have published a guide for rooting your NookColor. It’s still quite experimental, but it works.

NookDevs provides a clear explanation of what the purpose of the root is:

Check out the full rooting guide after the break.
