on the market for over a year and sold millions of units at $250.
Gives Flash, apps, videos, color magazines and ebooks with video
inserts, and the best anti-glare coated screen on the market.
Technology “leader” Amazon is finally catching up with the book store
company by copying their device.
Kindle only supports eBooks in its
proprietary AZW format. Nook, on the other hand, supports both
DRM-protected and DRM-free ebooks in ePub format thus it supports ebooks
from B&N store, from any other DRM-free source on the web, and from
public libraries.
If you walk in with the Nook to Barnes & Noble store, you’re allowed
to read any available eBook for free while in the store via free
provided in the store Wi-Fi.
Nook Color has hundreds of free apps available for download. Nook
store has over 2 million of paid books and about the same number of free public domain books.
