So you own a NC, do you have an Android phone you tether with it

I have a Huawei S7 rooted with froyo rom 2.2.2 and use at&t pre pay data. Froyo rom allows use for wifi teather and use as a wifi hotspot. I use my s7 as a wifi hotspot and get wifi on my rooted stock nook color. Seems to work well although the data plan is a bit expensive. At&t charges 25 dollars/month for 500 meg.

I am considering going to Virgin Mobile's LG Optimus V. Has anyone rooted it and tethered it with a CM7 Color Nook?

I tether my Nook Color with my Droid Pro on occasion, but very rarely. It works great when I do though.

Along the same lines as the OP (and quite possibly useful to him also) has anyone successfully tethered a NC to the GPS on an android phone or to a bluetooth GPS puck? I have been thinking of installing a NC in my car as a navigation unit but I would need 3g (or 4g obviously) data AND GPS since the NC has neither of these.

This has been done and covered. Check the GPS threads in the apps section.

Excellent! Searched for Tether GPS and came up with this: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...ps-navigation-nook-color-manner-speaking.html

Had to figure out which of the 3 search tools to use. Sheesh!

I just fire up my APN tethering on Captivate and voila my Nook has wifi.
