What do you get when you mix:
1 Nook Tablet
+
1 Android Gingerbread
+
1 Cyanogen(mod) 7
= 1 Happy FrenchFortuneCookie Girl!!
Just as I enjoy the freedom of Ubuntu on my laptop, I desired the same freedom from my Nook Tablet. The array of tablets are numerous, as are the price points. After researching the pros and cons of each – the #1 con of being ‘locked’ in – I grimaced at the thought of it. For me, the Nook Tablet had a reasonable price point and the ‘potential’ for so much more.
It was this ‘potential’ and the drive to not be locked in that I settle on Cyanogen(mod) to give me all the freedom, possibilities and choice I desired from my tablet.
Now my Nook (fondly renamed Gingy 
was free to be everything I wanted it to be and more! Endless possibilities and I have the Cyanogen(mod) team to thank. And what better way to show you thanks than a donation of cash! Yes its coming your way. Along with a delicious assortment of homemade cookies……munch…munch…munch…but if you don’t contact me soon…munch…munch… I can’t guarantee there’ll be any left

Just to let you know it wasn’t as smooth sailing as these instructions make it out to be but overall, it wasn’t terribly complex.

Looking forward to Cyanogenmod 9 but for now I’ll be happy for months with the Cyanogenmod 7
