I will buy an Android, it'll be Notion Ink's Adam when available. And I won't mince realities with the fact that it's an Android tablet and not an ereader.

It's not being sold as a tablet, but as an eReader with added functionality. The primary function of the device is reading, and Barnes and Noble are making an emphasis on magazines and children books, as those are the ones that benefit the most from color. The extra functionality (browser and the few apps it comes with, plus any that may be available in the future) is a welcome addition to the eReader functionality.
