It will be interesting to see if they make it available on the Nook

Its possible to root hack the Nook now and run Android 2.2 (and maybe
3.0) on it and should be able to install the current XCSoar Android
software and see if it works. I believe there is supposed to be an
official upgrade to Android 2.2 coming for the Nook which should make
this easier. Anybody tried XCSoar on the Nook?
