Six Inch Nook eReader Clears the FCC, 8″ Cases Show Up on B&N Website
http://the-digital-reader.com/2015/0...on-bn-website/
Quote:
A new filing on the FCC's website has revealed that B&N has a new Nook. All the more interesting details have been concealed, but we do know that this device is clearly labeled an ereader. It has Wifi (but not BT), and from the dimensions it is also clear that this is a 6" ereader, and not the 8" model I reported on Sunday...

If it's Carta, I'm in. Although I do wish someone would release a good 8" reader in the US.

They should have came with the larger screen. It would have sold, being their only updated device. Amazon folks crying for a larger screen would be tempted. That would push Amazon to release one. *sigh*

If it's Carta and runs a more recent version of Android (JellyBean at least), I may be tempted. But if it's just more of the same (Eclair), I won't bother.

It looks like this is a rebranded Netronix device, so it could be running a newer version of Android.

Thanks for your response.

Now that you mention Netronix, have you seen this? This Earl E-Ink tablet has been in the works for some time, and has had a number of delays. Apparently, they've switched from Onyx to Netronix as their E-Ink developer. If Earl ever sees the light of day, it would be a unique kind of E-Ink device.

In terms of portability, the 6 inch seems to be the perfect size. I'm intrigued by an 8 inch reader solely because I use a fairly large font size and the extra screen space would be nice. Not sure I want to lug the larger reader around though.

We've seen too many promising devices/technology announced that never sees the light of day or are a failure. So until this comes out and is as good as they say, it's vaporware.

It was a point I made in my post, actually.

Yes, I've been following the Earl. It's a long-running fiasco.

If they do offer an 8 inch, I'll grab one. I want B&N to hang around. Hopefully this will give them the momentum they need.

I highly doubt the 8-inch version is eink. The two-way stand that B&N already sells is for the Samsung tablet and is meant to view a tablet in landscape. Per Nate's links on his site, the accessories listed for the new nook are two-way cover stands.
