As most people know, I'm not a big fan or was not, of 1st Nook and I keep my position about it. However, played with new Nook Tablet few hours ago in a B&N store close to home with my wife, and we both are impressed.
I bought a Fire the day before thanks giving, and I've played a lot with it during these past holiday days. While not a bad device, I'm a bit disappointed. The UI and performance is not what I was expecting. But I must admit the price is right and the Amazon store gives you a better deal (more apps, more selection )
The Nook Tablet is very responsive and has brighter colors than Fire. I can confirm it, because I've really played with the Fire a few days.
As someone who use dedicated mp3 players for music, the Amazon music content does not play a huge role in a purchase decision, instead, Amazon computer books and selection.
I was able to install B&N app on Fire without rooting. I wonder if people can run Kindle ask or app on Nook Tablet without rooting as well .
