omgosh, thank you for this review. The first one I have been able to find that is NOT biased. Every one touts the Kindle so much I have had a hard time finding a real side by side comparison. This was extremely helpful, keep up the good work, I'm now linked with this on FB due to the great review. :)

I pretty much agree with everything in this review after testing the Kindle (2) and Nook side-by-side. Also, I find it misleading that the B&N folks will tell you, point blank, that “anything available on the Kindle is available on the Nook” and that the “public domain books are in ADDITION to the over-a-million available titles”. It simply is not true, not yet, and not by a long shot in my tests for programmer titles. When asked exactly how many commercial titles are available, the people at B&N are EXTREMELY evasive (one said, “what does it matter? Books are books”). Finally, the Kindle Store allows you to browse categories and it tells you exactly how many titles are available. I could not find a browse categories feature in the Nook at all and neither could the Nook sales person.

I agree that the Nook was not quite ready for release. Downloading purchased book took hours not seconds; hitting the “on” button failed to wake up Nook – had to reawaken via USB; battery went from 84% to 5% (without my using it) in less than 24 hours. User guide less than helpful

Nook is better then the books and the Sony
e-reader which doesnt have 2 screen and
is costly.

This is a dopey comment. There are literally millions of books that don’t have color, don’t have “inline” additional content, and look just fine on an e-ink screen. Books have been monochrome for hundreds of years, and the current generation of e-readers are well suited to reading them. They don’t produce eye strain and have long lasting batteries.
