Q. Looking through a forum I saw someone say that the android market had a "nook tweak" app that worked well. When I tried to download it, an error message said "There are no Android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account" Is there a way to connect them? Or am I stuck with only the barnes and noble store which stinks!!! Help please. I'm new at this!
A. I was looking into the Nook Color and while I realized that it is a sh*tty ebook reader and a sh*tty tablet that isn't worth the cost, the main thing that initially attracted me to it was that the sales person said that the Nook Color worked with Android Apps.
If I were you, I'd go onto the Nook Color Forum and ask this question there because it was made REALLY clear to me that Android Apps work with the NC right out of the box.

Want to turn Nook Color into Android Tablet?
Q. I want to buy a Android N2A card. If I put it in the slot and my Nook Color turns into an Android tablet can I turn it back into a Nook Color by taking the N2A card out again? And will I still be able to access my books and apps that I bought on my Nook Color? Is this the best way to do it? Thanks.
A. There's no need to buy a card to do this. You can easily make your own card with Cyanogenmod 7 installed to it, see http://quinxy.com/2011/04/01/complete-guide-to-installing-configuring-cyanogenmod-7-rc4-android-2-3-gingerbread-on-the-nook-color/
The NC will boot into CM7 if the card is installed and into the normal Barnes & Noble software if it isn't.

What do you think about a 3D iphone like the sprint 3D one?
Q. Do you think apple is copying android? Would the iphone still be better? Or do you like android better?
A. the 3d phones have very nice screens, and super AMOLED screens are superior to that of the iphone with truer colors. keep in mind though the 3d goes INTO the screen it doesn't pop out. its supposed to reduce eye strain.
I prefer android over apple for the reason that its open-source, that means that the majority of the apps are free, and you get more revolutionary and cutting edge apps, and do things are even only barely available on a jail broken iphone
The android market already has 250000 apps- closing in on apple 500000; some say it will surpass it before the year is over. Also any popular iphone game or game adaptation can be found in the android market for free.
Another great thing about android as that if you dont like something (keyboard, homescreen, etc.) it can easily be swapped without jail-breaking, unlike the iphones one-size-fits-all approach.
Despite the false rumors, The iphone is also just as, if not more vulnerable to viruses as android

Apple lovers that say that the iphone is made of better quality material? They don�t realize that Samsung, an android phone maker, supply�s the screen, processor and memory for apple devices, so android has the advantage here.
The iphone is pretty, but not durable, drop it once- it breaks, all that glass around it? That was honestly a mistake. Android manufactures clearly saw that, and decided to do with something a little more durable.
And the iphones �retina display� is a huge scam. By definition a �retina display� is one where the human eye cannot distinguish individual pixels. But this is determined by several factors; most important being the distance between the screen and your eyes. The iphones retina distance is 12in, move any closer than that- say 7in and it�s no longer a �retina screen� because your eyes can now see the pixels, by that same token, if I move my android phone back, to say 16-17in, amazingly, it becomes a retina screen as well! (feel free to google this)
Also apple never invents anything, there never �the first�. All they do is steal old technology, give it a fresh coat of paint and mass advertise it as �magical� and �innovating�, thus fooling the mass of the population into believing that apple offers cutting edge technology, that in fact has been around for quite a few years.
So instead of innovating, apple actually hinders technology- after 4 years they still have low-power single core phones, while android, an example of technology in overdrive, has rumored that, after their second year, the release of quad core phones that will surpass even some desktop computers in shear processing power. (now any 2011 android is smoother and faster than the iphone)
speaking of people needing to open there eyes.....android was purchased by google in 2005, two years BEFORE the iphone...
Apple should now feel pretty worried; android has passed it in market share
http://www.businessinsider.com/android-iphone-market-share-2011-4
Then apple panics and sues
http://www.dailytech.com/Google+ExCEO+Apple+Doesnt+Innovate+They+Sue/article22190.htm
The funny thing is that apple can�t sue for being the first touchscreen or tablet, because they weren�t,(Nokia fist touch screen, �archos� first tablet) so instead they sue for much more relevant things like, �the rounded icon corners� and �having a flat screen� or �the square shape of the phone���..
To top it all, if you�ve seen apples 2011 presentation, they blatantly copied over five "new" features that were previously on android.

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/06/apple-introduces-ios5-with-notifications-ota-updates-and-tabbed-browsing-android-users-giggle-at-their-late-arrival/
1. Notification bar
2. Twitter integration
3. No need to connect to PC to sync
4. Launch apps from lock screen
5. Tabbed browsing
And not only are they copies, but apple didn�t even bother to improve, or change some of them in any way- some even have LESS features than their android counter parts, it�s basically a cheap imitation with the ever-popular iphone skin.
According to Steve jobs, these "revolutionary" new technologies that android users had since 2007 will be available on IOS5, and it would not surprise me to see some more android features from 2008 on IOS6.But the truly sad part is that due to apples marketing, in a few months, apple lovers will really think that apple invented those features and call android the copycats�yet again.

Is it possible to install Android Honeycomb on a PC?
Q. I have a tablet pc, hp touch-smart tm2t if that matters, i was wondering if there was a possible way to do a kind of dual boot with android and windows, like on separate partitions. Is that possible?
EDIT-
Ok since it is written for ARM processors could you run it in a virtual machine in windows?

A. there are many websites online describing how to install android 2.1 and 2.2 to your computer directly, this means, not using a virtual machine. i guess because google released a version meant for computer, but i am just guessing on that one. There are also other sites with information on how to run android honeycomb on a virtual machine, but i would really like to install it directly on the pc and not emulate it.
