That's right, I wasn't going to buy a Nook, because its battery life was too short for my needs. I was holding out for Nook 2, but now that's out the window with the release of Nook Color. Now I have no idea what I'm going to do for my eInk reader, except compromise.
As to my interest in Nook Color, it's because I was also in the market for a 7" tablet. I was hoping to get a full spec'd Android tablet, but with each announcement of a new release, I kept getting disillusioned as one company another decided to treat them like smart phones and offer them up to wireless carriers at outrageous prices.
So Nook Color comes as a pleasant surprise. If it can do email, surf the web, and read my color content, then its all the tablet I need.
Even if I get the Color, I'm still getting an eInk reader.
