So I realize there are a few posts already about the new Nook, but I thought a poll would be appropriate. Knowing what we do so far, how likely is it that you will upgrade from a Nook Classic to the new Simple Touch Reader? Please also feel free to tell us why you answered the way you did (i.e. for which feature).

Personally, I'm sort of on the fence about whether it is worth the upgrade. I suppose if I were able to sell my Nook Classic on craigslist for at least $75 that would make the decision easier. Mostly I use my Nook Classic for reading newspaper subscriptions while outside, and the current Classic does a good job of it. It's hard for me to imagine the screen being that much better, battery life is never a problem for me, and the ergonomics of the size and weight are nice. Really the main advantage to me of the newer Nook is the touchscreen to look up a word in the dictionary. Does anyone know if the new Nook STR will let you look up a word on Wikipedia, or does it just let you use the dictionary and highlight a passage? So let's see what other people think...
