I was under the impression that the new Nook still required some touch screen interaction for navigation/dictionary lookups. If not, that's awesome. If so, then it's not an upgrade so much as a function design difference, since some people do not like the idea of touching their ereader display. For them, not only is it not an upgrade, it's an imposition. The CPU is definitely an objective upgrade, and a big one imo. Nobody is gonna say "I prefer the slower CPU on my Kindle."
Thing is, people understand the back-and-forth of device releases. Few people want to jump back and forth between companies, buying a new device every 7-9 months.
