So I thought I would outline my experience so far..
1. Turned on Development
2. attached to Linux Box (Ubuntu)
a. as root created file /etc/udev/rules/51-android.rules
b. Ran lsusb and noticed a new Device "Bus 002 Device 008: ID 18d1:b004"
c. edited 51-android.rules ands added the line:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666"
d. ran adb devices and got the machine talking..
3. Pushed Up z4Root [APP] z4root - xda-developers
4. Rooted the Tab.
5. Pushed Up Titanium Backup (Did a full backup) Titanium Backup for Android ? Official Site
6. Installed other Root apps.
7. Replaced the launcher with Launcher Pro LauncherPro «
8. Installed SlideMe for a simple Store SlideME | Android Community and Application Marketplace
7. Removed the last of the "Phone apps" in an attempt to squeeze a bit more battery out of the machine. Cool XDA hack "Remove Cell Standby" I did this manually. No need to mount as the file system seems to be RW for root. Remove Cell Standby Service from Nook Color | xda-developers
8. Installed SkyFire for Youtube video and web browsing.
For now That is where I am at.. I have found instructions for Getting the Google App store up and running but I have not had the time to make sure I do it safely..
Hope this helps some people out..
Dave.
