In my research, I've found that I don't care for the touchscreen controls on the Nook. But I like the native access to library ebooks via Overdrive. The K3 feels really nice in my hands and I like the buttons for control. Also, I've not found a way to have the Nook go into landscape mode like the K3. I think the Nook e-ink screen is perfectly readable. (I took a Color Nook outside to test the other day and it was awful in the sunlight. But it sure looked nice inside the store.)

While there are ways to port ePubs to the K3, there are ethical issues involved. Also, I don't know how practical it is in that some files may not be convertible and I don't know how well the conversions display on the K3.

The choices are tough if you prefer the Kindle hardware but still want library ebook access. It shouldn't have to be this way.
