I just ordered mine.... :2thumbsup

I wonder if thay will alow overseas shipping for the new nook.

I did a test order and it didn't block me from entering the order screen (like it use to when i tried to order the old nook some months back)

yes, people were tweeting yesterday that they received emails saying their nook was being shipped! i love surprises! :)

My checkout confirmed that they still don't ship to Canada. Unless I am just not lucky, this is still one major dissappointment from B&N.

Yippee!!! My local store said they are expecting them any moment now. Glad I reserved one already. I'll call again early tomorrow morning.:D

Whoop!!!!!
 

Curious - I rec'd an email Monday saying that my order is "scheduled to ship", but both the note and online, and when I go to B&N to check, it still says June 10th.

Sounds like a PR announcement to me - no actual change, just getting their name out there again.

Corrected - at 1:11PST, I just got an email saying that it shipped !!!! Wow !!!

Way to get the drop on Kobo, and regain the buzz !

Received mine about 2 hours ago. It is the awesome!

so far basically every review has said it was an awesome ereader.

You mean, expecting for shipping or expecting to having those on store?

I think you're in Houston, right? Which one are you referring to, the one on 1960 and 249 or the one on Sugar Land? ...

I'm in the South Dallas area. He said they're expecting stock.

Thanks for reply.

Let us know how it goes and feels when you got it.

According to PC Magazine:

That addresses some concerns about no web browser when connecting to WiFi at some locations.

really? then that takes the whole lack web browser as a negativeoff the table for most people. if this is in fact true. I mean surfing the net on e ink isn't exactly a smooth and tranquil experience.

I'll be waiting for a very thorough review from you SCION! Inquiring minds want to know.

Okay some of you are already in possession of a STR, so how about some reviews.
