I saw a thread about the Cnet review, but Engadget and Gizmodo put up their reviews this morning as well. The Gizmodo review pointed out that the Barnes & Noble store has been more expensive than Amazon, but Barnes & Noble are now cutting their prices to match or at least compete with Amazon. See the quote below if you don't want to read the whole review.

I was pretty pleased, though I was a tad annoyed that sales tax wasn't included in the base price. Be warned there.
