Barnes and Noble “Nook” Review
Library eBooks – Barnes and Noble Nook allow you to read DRM-protected ePub books from the library Adobe ePub (if the library uses OverDrive).
ePub Support – In addition to Library ebooks this allows you read isolated ePub books and protected ePub books from ebook stores that support Adobe DRM.
LendMe – For definite books B & N lets give them out once, this feature has a lot of rumors, Note that it is only allowed when publishers gives a permit, although it seems that there are some best-sellers that allow it.
Color touchscreen 3.5 – This enhancement the 6 eInk screen very well.
WiFi Support – Nook has 3G connection WiFi for ebook store for Surfing (also for e-book store where 3G is not accessible.)
BrowsingInternet is faster, since it is through WiFi. While you should have WiFi to use the browser is much faster than kindle’s 3G internet connection.
MicroSD card slot – This is an important advantage if the 2 GB memory that comes with Kindle and the Nook is not enough.
Nook Browser – The latest nook browser is very high-quality. It’s very usable for surfing, news and supports YM Classic version. It only works Through WiFi.
Custom Screensavers – You can add your own photos as your background.
Disposable battery - The battery of nook is disposable though there are barely ever reports of Kindle battery failures and Amazon change batteries for $80.
Better Screen contrast – A combination of contrast of the screen a little better and the thin black border around the screen of Nook eInk make it more readable.
There are many additional features to be considered as the advantages of nook from kindle.
Browse in Store – When in B&N stores you can read some books for free for up to an hour in a 24 hour time period. Don’t find this to be a significant advantage – if you’re in a store you can read any paper book for as long as you like.
Lend Me – Listing this again as it might not be as big an advantage as B&N paint it to be. You can only lend a book one single time and to one friend only.
Support for Sony Store Books.
Retail Presence – You can go into a B&N or a Best Buy and try out the Nook. Strongly recommend trying out the usability and the weight before buying the Nook.
Sudoku and Chess – these two free games are good for entertainments.
Nook Cover Flow – When looking at books you’ve purchased or browsing the Nook store you can browse books by their covers.
Support for PDB (it’s a format used by eReader.com and Fictionwise.com ebook stores - both are owned by B&N).
Free WiFi in B&N stores.
Barnes & Noble did a good job and the incorporation of a browser makes the nook very convincing.
