Look, we know we give Colorware (http://www.engadget.com/tag/colorware/) a hard time -- mostly because it regularly spits out miscast creations like the abominable Kindle (http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/11/kindle-2-gets-the-colorware-treatment-prepares-to-burn-some-ret/) or the unlovable DSi (http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/colorware-gets-its-paint-guns-on-nintendos-dsi-does-unthinkabl/) -- but in the case of the Nook we're a lot more ambivalent. Sure, on the one hand you can concoct clashing color schemes like the one above that only someone from Portugal can truly appreciate, but if you slide past the break you'll find tasteful color combos are possible as well. Perhaps it's the Nook's simple logo on the back and straight-line color separation, but this is one instance where we might actually be willing to shell out the $125 asking price for a fresh paintjob.
