?? Kindle has always had the archive feature - they didn't call it "Archive" until the 2nd generation Kindle, but it's always been there.

The keyboard serves a lot of functions - personally I'm not a fan of touchscreens, but we're all different. I don't much see the difference between "Nook" at the top and "Barnes & Noble" at the bottom of the device, and "Amazon Kindle" at the top of the device.

I'm considering a Nook for the ePub content I've picked up from B&N, Borders, Kobo, and Sony (I have a Sony reader that I'll probably sell if I get a Nook). I've played with the Nook a lot, and some of it is familiarity I'm sure, but I much prefer the hardware of my Kindle.

I'm just glad there are so many choices out there these days for so many people's needs and tastes - it can only bode well for those of us who are committed to our e-readers and can't imagine going back.
