Nook Color Other

Hi Gary, In your picture it looks like there is a reflection that could be misidentified as a crack. Could you please upload another photo of the device and comment here when you do so and we will review the listing for you.

Thanks for using Swappa!

Oops. I see what you mean! I deleted that photo and uploaded four new ones, hopefully showing the screen in all of its scratch-free glory. Thanks for catching that!

Ping.

Listing approved. Thanks for using Swappa.

Question... Since it is rooted will Netflix and vudu (streaming) work on it.
Since sometimes Netflix and vudu can be temperamental on rooted devices

I never had a problem streaming Netflix movies/shows on it while rooted (it's been rooted since day 1, and I used Netflix pretty regularly). I'm not familiar with vudu, so I can't speak to that specifically.

Oh, crap! Sorry! I thought you were asking about my other listing (Galaxy Nexus). I don't know if I ever tried Netflix on the Nook. I will see if I can do so today and report back. Please disregard my previous comment.

Ok, so when you go to the vudu page in the Play store, it gives you the "This application isn't compatible with your device". So that's a "no".

Netflix installs and will (attempt to) play videos, but the quality is really bad. It's laggy and pixelated with lots of skipped/dropped frames. I think the problem is that the processor/GPU in the Nook just isn't designed for video. So I would highly recommend not buying it if using video is your main purpose.

For the record, the Nook works well as an ereader (Kindle/PDFs/Calibre), and it plays my kids' games well enough to keep them occupied.

Hope that helps!
