PSA: New Nook Color partitioning only leaves 1GB for music, other sideloaded content
If you are planning to pick out up a Nook Color , keep a watch out for a touch blue dot at the box — no, they don’t seem to be defective, but new models with the dot has been tweaked to verify Barnes & Noble retains control of most of that (already limited) internal storage. Updated partitioning leaves just 1GB of internal storage for sideloaded content, together with music and films, with the remainder 4GB reserved for content purchased from the book and app stores. Previous models allowed sideloaded content to make use of all 5GB of obtainable storage, however the change was made “to make sure ample space for a customer’s Nook Library and Nook Apps,” in line with B&N. We’re sure you may determine find out how to reclaim those extra gigs , but you will not be capable to transfer all your music library out of the box. Luckily, the Nook still has its microSD slot, allowing you so as to add as much as 32GB of storage for music, movies, and whatever other content you might want to keep yourself from using your e-reader to truly read.

[Thanks, Mark]
