I noticed something called nooklauncher and I am curious what this can do and if it has enough features to make the decsion to switch to nook a little easier

Anyone want to shoot my their opinions?
Sony are great devices! But if you are in the mood of establishing some comparisons, buy the Nook from a Best Buy store (in my area, it is less problematic for returns than the B&N store itself) and keep both devices for a day or two. Just that way you can tell for yourself if you like it or not.

Hardware perspective though, most recent Sony and Kindle 3 have better eink screen, and that's not an opinion but a scientific fact. But again, go and get the Nook or better yet, both, Nook 1st gen and most recent Sony, if you can afford that. Keep the one you think is better for your eyes.

*EDIT*
Never mind, just saw you order the Nook ;-)
