Does anyone have suggestions on a capacitive stylus. I was thinking of using this for note taking. I dot even have hands on my NC yet, so sgguestions for such an app to do it would be great. Also, I've seen some capacitive styli that didnt glide very well, and were only used for touch (like typing). I definitely need one that I can "draw" with.


The Griffin stylus for iPad works great. They are about $20.00 at Target have seen them online for $8.00

One thing to keep in mind when getting a case. I've played around with Honecomb 3.0. It's going to be AWESOME! However, be advised that you are going to use 3.0 in the landscape mode (holding your NookColor sideways), because 3.0 is designed to work that way. It can be used in the portrait position also, but landscape is better, IMO. So, when purchasing a case, you might want to consider something that functions well in the landscape mode like this one at amazon.

But I like the one you linked instead. I like the option of having different viewing angles. With the one I got, You have two options, landscape and portrait.

i've not seen these in any stores, only on Amazon and Ebay. Barnes/Noble has a plethora of cases on their website and carry many in their store. i did purchase this one and am fairly pleased with it.

the metal tab is a magnet and it folds under and attaches to the back to prop the NColor in an upright portrait position suitable for reading. Useful for the kitchen table. It protects the NC very well also. Very functional, but i do plan to get the case from Amazon in my photo in previous post.

The local Bookstar (B&N affiliate) had those on display. The only thing I didn't like was that you couldn't adjust the angle, as with the one posted above.

This is a pretty cool accessory:

They show it with the iPad in this picture, but it looks like it works with any handheld device.

I love when people use their brains for stuff like this.

We got these two cases for our Nooks, which are arriving on Monday.

I think mine might be going back (the green one). I like how the purple one surrounds the entire Nook, as opposed to just grabbing it on the corners. Also, the purple one has holes in the back over the speaker, although if I were to listen to media playing I assume it would be through headphones. I'm going to wait until I actually have the NC in hand to make up my mind. Does anyone have either of these?

Both the green one and the other one I bought are going back. I got this one:

I thought it was the leather version of the "veggie" one linked above. I guess I didn't look too closely before I ordered. This one is a keeper, though. It only has one position in landscape mode, but there are several options for portrait mode.

This is the most beautiful holder I'vefound,it''s perfect for holding the nook vertically or horizontally on your desk or by your bed waiting for the alarm widget to wake you up. At B&N,$12.99.

One question about sound.
Since back side is covered, how U can hear anything with this case?

Also, has anyone tried this CARBON FIBER INVISIBLE SHIELD CASE ??
