The nook color is not very portable though. Not like a phone. I carry a bag so I have no portability issues, but if I didn't it would be a pain. If I were you I would consider a smaller tablet. 7 inches is just too big to carry everywhere like I do my phone, I can't put my nook in my pocket.

Hey Care! Haha. I think it's funny that everyone has the same hang-ups about the Touch vs. Nook as myself, but ultimately they lean towards the Touch because of form factor & portability. That REALLY is a major factor. I mean sure the NC is great. But if it's not in my pocket anytime I wanna I wanna read a book, then does it really matter? And no, I don't have a purse (m-urse?) so carrying around the Nook would be difficult.
Also as was mentioned earlier, the poorer browser experience on the Touch might be somewhat mitigated by customized Apps...
Humm, so consensus is heavily for the iPod Touch 4G...
Thx you all for sharing! I really do appreciate each of you taking the time outta your busy schedules to help me out. Also, sorry about multiple replies across multiple posts... i know it's rather messy and difficult to follow.
As you can probably deduce, I'm not a huge forums user...
