The Nook Touch, from the reviews, is a very capable reader and competes strongly in the under $150 Pearl e-ink space, throwing in IR touch and WiFi and branded from Barnes and Noble, a very credible book retailer. Now the deal just got sweeter by an SD card and 30 (commercial) starter books.

I really don't understand how this can be seen as a bad thing for the consumer.
I'm saying it's a "rip-off" IF the "upgrade" means you have to leave your old device behind, like a trade-in. I highly doubt this is the case, but someone else brought it up in thread and I was providing my two cents on that.
