My nook touch has great hardware buttons and a touch screen. It's also over a year old now and still works great.


Yea, I am very happy with how simple and easy my Nook is. Maybe Kindle's UI has gotten better with the touch screens, but it used to be horrid.


What I don't understand is why everyone here in The Bay Area seems to overlook the Nook, or really anything competing with the most well known tech brands.

Competition is great and the Nook is fairly competitive with the Kindle. I went with the nook at the time simply because it was superior to the kindle (it had the touch screen first).

For some reason this guy compares it to an iPad but doesn't even mention the Nook.
