The Archos 70 screen is inferior and it costs more than the nook. The screen is the big feature here and the Color Nook is roughly 25% higher resolution (169 pixels per inch (nook) vs 132 pixels per inch (archos))

It too is very interesting but I believe the ereader apps will be much better on the color nook. Having a major app focus with a proven history is an excellent hook vs a general list of good but overall unimpressive features. The reader is still a major hook for me and I don't believe the generic andriod app version will compete in the near term with the color nook version.
