Nook color e-reader is not an Android tablet - Its got a job already.

Barnes & Noble's new color e-reader - E-books - Salon.com
A number of article, like the Salon piece, are complaining that the Nook Color is not an open Android Tablet. I think Nook is doing it right. Using Android as the the OS for your hardware is not license to install anything you like (of course it will get a jailbreak immediately, but that's the hackers do). Keep it locked down until Android cleans up its act. In the meantime regular users won't get frustrated trying to download Angry Birds.
