I imagine it was released in an attempt to help try and push the NookMagazines and NookNewspapers. First real dedicated colour ereader for newspapers/magazines. Perhaps they feel this will get them an early share of that market (not sure how without 3G delivery like the Kindle).
I could be wrong, but me being in Australia I'd have to go through a postal relay to get it to me, too much hassle for me, I'll wait for something else.
