I am about to root my NC, and after I would like to sync it with my Outlook contacts. Anyone know of an app for this?
If you flash to Android 2.2 you can do this natively with the Exchange Sync function. Alternatively, you can sync your Outlook contacts to your Google account, and then that would also sync your contacts to your device, as well as give you a backup of your contacts in the cloud.
There is a 2.2 build out there, but it is not the one from B&N. You can get info on that and on rooting at this link: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/nook/3458-nook-color-useful-links-rooting-information.html There is supposed to be a full 2.2 build coming from B&N next month according to multiple media reports.
I'd advise against flashing to the currently released 2.2 just to be able to sync your contacts. Stick to an app for now.
