The web browsers is awful.

Also, I managed to download and ePub so I could try out the reader and after the ePub downloaded and I tried to open it, I was told the nook color didn't know what to do with it. Also, scrolling the screen seemed a bit choppy/slow. The iPad has nothing to worry about for sure.
As web browser competition I agree. However, I would hope a device that costs $500 would have a bit better web browser.
