Can I ask a quick question re: international support for the nook? As of today, with all the new firmware upgrades and whatever else B&N added to the device: what are the differences between Nook wifi vs a Kindle wifi if I'm living outside the US? My mind is mostly made up to buy the kindle 3 wifi but I still think that the nook,thickness aside, is a better looking reader. Can non-US nook owners honestly tell me if it's still good enough to compete with the K3? And does B&N have any plans for a new, hopefully thinner, E-ink nook?
