The Nook Color, now more like a tablet

Barnes and Noble issued a major update for their Nook series of E-Readers. It essentially gives the device the functionality of a tablet. I did the update on my wife's Nook, however, I am bugged by one big thing. The update was......painful. First you had to download the update on your computer, transfer it to the root directory of the device and then wait for the device to detect that it was there and the update would install on it's own. Well, that took over an hour. The update itself took 5 minutes, the other steps took up the rest of the time. It may have been easier if Barnes and Noble actually had a clear set of instructions to follow. It took 10 minutes to find the page with the vague instructions. Once installed, I hopped over to the "App Store". Angry Birds was there, so I am happy for now.
