Nook Color is intended to be an ebook reader, but this 7-inch touchscreen device is running Android, so it can be converted into to run a full version of the Android OS. Then you can install your favorite favorite Android apps. You can even install the Kindle for Android app and other book reading applications, and libraries so that you are not limited to Barnes & Noble library even if you don't want to remove DRM protection from ebooks.

Note that rooting Nook Color will void its warranty. And there is a risk to damage your device.
