You know, I think I'm a little confused. I thought the Nook classic used page swipes too, but the person at B&N, when he was demoing it for me, said the classic does not have page swipes, just the color.
So, it must have been a color Nook that the woman on the bus was swiping several times to turn a page.

I was surprised how much I liked the Nook. It felt good in my hands, and pretty intuitive. I actually prefer buttons to turn the page (I love my Kindle). I finally was able to actually get a Sony 350 in my hands today, and it just didn't appeal to me - I didn't like the touch screen or the small size. Of course, it was in Borders and no one offers any assistance in that place, so I was on my own, and confused. (To be fair, they probably really don't care about customer service at this point...
May be due to me being an, ahem, older lady, but I think in the long run I will be happier with the Nook.
