Nook Color for HSMM Update

The Nook Color that I posted about earlier is a very nice little computer. I have been working with it more on the web side, I have played with the ebook side and it works very well. It's web browser is nice, but I have to get used to typing on the screen. I had no problems connecting to the AP router going into the Mesh node. The Nook connected to my Paclink email server without any problems. I can send and recieve email from the Nook. This was a fun and easy project.

Nook Color for HSMM

I have recently acquired a Barnes and Noble Nook Color. This is a very interesting piece of equipment. Out of the box it has many great features other than an Ebook reader. The Nook has a web browser, email, games, and applications. It has WiFi which is a very nice feature, along with the 7 inch color screen. The only thing it does not have that would be nice is a microphone or line in port. I have been looking at the possibility of using this for HSMM. The web browser may be a quick handy way to access the Mesh. There is a way to change the software to Android or even Ubuntu. I will be looking into these in the near future.
