I actually agree with the gist of everything you've said here in this paragraph, but it's so negative that it's really distracting from your overall point, I think. And I'm the LAST person to be labeled a B&N cheerleader - I've waded in there with you before in the "800 Reasons Why The Stock Reader Sucks" arguments.

If you went with a phrasing more like this:



, I think we'd see fewer thread-jackings and more meaningful conversations overall.
I agree, "IMHO" and "for my needs" goes along way. I for one love the stock reader UI of the Nook color, but then again Im just a general book reader and don't need 47 font's, or 200 margin options nor do I need above and beyond tagging and collections etc. Some do, some don't .

I don't like the kindle at all but I'm not popping into the Kindle board and telling them how much of a POS their device is.

but when a person comes on here daily to tell us what POS the nook color is and the new nook from BN will be a failed loser too. I'm not understanding why he is surprised he's labeled as such?
