In the nook color's defense, from my personal experience, the clarity of the screen and the text readability blows away devices like the Pandigital Novel and Velocity Cruz. I do wish the screen of the nook color had the 4 x 3 aspect ratio though.
When I first got my JE100 (which also uses a 16x9 screen), I thought it might be a minor negative point. However, I find it perfectly usable to read. The page is a bit longer, is all. Naturally, if you have a fixed-width page (like comics, or PDF's made for 4x3 formats), you'd lose a lot of space. But on the JE100 I use mobipocket, so no problems there.
