And how does anyone here KNOW that the screen quality is as good as an ipad but smaller? Have you used this new device?
B&N should have made some improvements to the Nook with e-ink. Sure, a software update is coming, but why not have a pearl e-ink screen in a much lighter device? Nook needs more font sizes and better page turn buttons.

I understand your preference, yet I don't understand your belief that your chosen device type is the only type of ereader that should exist. When did people decide that only eink could make a dedicated reading device? That is simply not true. I've been waiting years for mature LCD ebook readers, which started with my tried but true RCA ebook reader and PDA devices. It is now proven that LCD can make an excellent reader and many of us want a device just for reading that is LCD, not eink.
So no, they didn't need ANOTHER eink device, we already have tons of them to choose from. People like me - and you will find a lot of us here - want this device specifically.
Finally, the device uses a very high quality capacitive screen by LG. It has technically higher resolution than an iPad. This means that it will be crystal clear. I'm sorry this isn't another eink technology, but be happy with your huge selection of eink readers and let those of us happy to finally have a high quality LCD reader rejoice.
