A Sea Of Red

I know we have some Kindle users on here. What do you think of B&M's new device?

B&N's Nook, e-Reader For The Masses



Barnes & Noble's new Nook e-reader has a simple task: Win over the die-hard tree killers. The Nook must convince e-book skeptics that this is the time to start moving from Gutenberg to gigabytes.

The device itself, introduced yesterday, will do a lot of the work. The Nook is gorgeous, as our slide show demonstrates. I'd rather see a $199 price--or $50 in free books included with every $259 purchase--but the lower pricing will arrive, perhaps next year.

The Nook is exciting in ways Amazon's Kindle 2 e-reader, the previous device to beat, fails to ignite people's interest. For me, the Nook is a Kindle killer and I think the market will react the same way.

The Kindle-Killer is going to be whatever Apple enters into the e-Book market.

Surprisingly they have been silent in this market. Sony is supposed to be coming out with their new device soon.

Forgive me for suggesting that Apple's arrogance may eventually catch up with them in the marketplace. They better enjoy these heady times.

I've never bought a Kindle because I never could get comfortable with either the ol or new versions. This looks much more appealing to me especially with some of the sharing aspects.

i have an iPod touch, that is my ebook reader
