It doesn't take much for me - if it's shiny and new and nobody else has one yet then I'm usually pretty giddy.
Really the main thing is the overall touch experience - especially how quick and easy it is to look up words in the dictionary (my biggest pet-peeve on the original). If someone could get an integrated Wikipedia lookup as well in a rooted Nook Touch, that would be killer... The Pearl screen is great to have finally (I was SO close to asking for a K3 for Christmas instead of the Nook Classic so I've always been jealous of those kindle owners).
Just looks great though - feels great. Looks like a perfect reader. Until the next shiny new one comes out...
I'm amazed at some of the BN stores out there - you can tell the Fargo store employs a ton of booklovers and readers because they are all over the new Nook as well. They had just gotten to the two display units and I had to pry it out of the hands of one of the employees...
I'm worried though - they are expecting their shipment today and they're not sure they're going to have enough to fill all of the pre-orders... (as you can tell, being blizzarded-in five months of the year, we have a lot of readers in this area).
Hoping to get the email this morning to get mine...
