Honeycomb coming to a Nook Color near you soon no comments
Google recently released the SDK for Android 3.0 (Honeycomb),
which will be optimized for tablets. The ingenious folks at XDA have already started making progress in getting it to work on the Nook Color.
Interestingly, you can see what Android 3.0 looks like on the Nook Color by using a disk imager to install an image of it on a micro SD card and booting your Nook Color with it. The ereader does not need to be rooted, and once you reboot the Nook Color after removing the SD Card it should revert to normal.
The image is 4GB so you will need an SD card that is larger than that. I only have a 4GB (like an HDD, actual size after formatting is smaller than labeled size) card so I have not yet been able to try this myself. You can find instructions on the XDA forum via the link above. As usual, proceed at your own peril – this should be pretty safe, but you are responsible for your own hardware if it gets bricked!
