I agree 100%. I gave the family a Nook for xmas. Rooted it that day.  When CM7 final release
with Nook support was available, I put it on.  It's like the Nook was designed to be rooted :>
It makes an excellent table. In fact, that's one if the reasons I want a hotspot on vacation.

The droid is a little harder, but I just finished rooting it.  Now onto CM7.
