The other thought that occurred to me was some kind of less expensive LCD reader for KIDS... with parental controls and a separate children's ebook store linked to the device, so they wouldn't be exposed to the "racy" stuff. I've always thought that a product something like that could be a big hit with parents.
I like the kid's books that read to them - my 3yr old certainly loves them. But I hate handing my nook to her. I have to keep a careful eye on her, then!
