Can Anyone Recomend Some Ebooks

[Hartzilla2007]

I bought a Nook Color the other day and I'm looking for some ebooks to put on it, so any suggestions?

Nearly all the Trek books are available in ebook, and about 80% of the other sci-fi I've been looking for is too.

Pick any book you want to read. It'll probably be there.

The Titan novels (in particular, Orion's Hounds, Sword of Damocles, and Synthesis), the Destiny trilogy, the Vanguard series, and the New Frontier omnibus (collecting the first 4 volumes).

That's just for starters...

If you want something not in paperback, there's always the Slings and Arrows miniseries.

I got the first book of that series so I'll check it out.

This is worded a little confusingly but I'll try and take a stab at answering you. If you are asking how is B&W text on the nook color I think it's awesome. The nook color allows you to set to different backgrounds for the text and I have mine set to grey. I find it comfotable on the eyes for long reading.

As for movies I don't know anyplace you can get them online except for Internet Archive as they have to be in a mp4 format. I use the free program Handbrake to convert my videos to play on my nook color. They look really really good. You tube on the browser looks awful but B&N is supposed to be releasing an update for the android software after the first of the year that will support flash video. That will allow more options for streaming video.

So it doesn't do Flash yet then? I could have sworn I heard somewhere that it played Flash videos now.

I suppose the nook color can run Flash if it is rooted but as manufactured no. Soon though...very soon!
