Nook in Color

I love, love, love my Amazon Kindle.  But I can't lie, I got a little jealous when I saw the new color Nook from Barnes and Noble.  Amazon is supposedly launching their color Kindle in August so they're way behind the band-wagon.  I haven't seen the new Nook up close and personal, but it looks pretty snazzy in this photo.  I will say that I'm a little suspect of how good the colors will actually look.   The best thing about the Kindle is the matte screen so you can read without glare.  I'm curious whether the color Nook really maintains the matte screen.  Since it's a touch screen, I'm thinking its functionality might be closer to the iPad than to the Kindle.  I tried reading on my boyfriend's iPad, and the reflection drove me nuts.  It was even worse than reading on a computer.  If the color Nook solves this issue, then it could be a nifty little gadget.

About Me

I'm 25 years old and working for a consulting company in a job that takes me across Europe. Sometimes my job is great and the travel is incredibly exciting. Sometimes, its horrible with unbearably long hours and unnecessary pressure, and I feel like crying (often I do). Through the ups and downs, this is my life.
