>Nook is color and gets better reviews than the Kindle. Not sure how big the screen is on the color Nook.

>>So will my Kindle but I want a big screen ( and color ) Nook is only 7" or so, no?

>>(Meanwhile my laptop collection include my Dell xps 1210 that has a 10" screen, will do portrait and doesn't weigh a whole lot more than an iPad. Of course its not as cool because I doesn't have a touch screen and has a keyboard, usb ports, flash etc but ... )
The reviews aren't unanimous by a long shot, but there is also the issue that the Nook is twice the price. Anyway, the future Amazon tablet ( android ) is predicted to come in at under $300 ( Amazon selling at a loss to grab some market share - Gillette never made its money off razors ) which will pretty much be a Nook killer.
For those of use who wouldn't take an Apple if Eve gave it to us personally it will be fun to cheer for Bezos against the new Evil Empire <bg>

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
