Yes, it's a gimmick if it's not done well. I would, for instance, never buy a device which only has touchscreen paging. I prefer buttons. One of my readers has that "swipe to go to the next page" thing (luckily, it also has buttons...). I used it once. Never again, as I had to find the page I was reading afterwards.
Now, I've never seen a Nook (as they aren't available here), so I can't comment on the touch menu of it.
