Great posts here about the different features and benefits of each model. You might consider the impact of the financial woes of the company that delivers these two products? During the past 3 years, Barnes & Noble (nook) has been rolling down hill like a snowball in h... They are now, in reality, bankrupt .... with a couple of major legal battles they are unlikely to win.

This means to us, that no matter how the nook stands up to competition, the owner of this product will most likely NOT be able to continue selling it in the future.

Tough love, I know. Remember Borders? They were selling their tablet and their employees were promoting it right up to the day they closed doors. Getting thru the smoke and mirrors might be the better way to go for the long run?

Just a thought.
