The Nook STR hardware is very interesting; very PB360ish, actually.
The software, a lot less. No landscape mode readly hurts. And the home page has ads.
Suboptimal.
Much more interesting, it has already been hacked to run (of course!) Angry Birds.
Any day now they'll get it up to full Android 2.1 functionality, which means FBreader, Coolreader, Overdrive, and Bluefire. Maybe even Softmaker office. With WiFi and pearl, it might be worth getting as a hacker project.
Just make sure you read the full 178 page mandatory Terms and Conditions contract you have to agree to before you can use it.
