June 19, good news. I ordered a Nook Touch, but don't want to deal with the front screen book ads and the 75% of memory limited to BN content only. After playing with one, I also didn't like the side page-turn buttons, which along with battery life were the only advantages over the Kobo, I think.
I had a Kobo wifi, and loved the feel of holding it, but as a lefty the right-side pad was just too difficult to use. I also like that the Kobo Touch has Georgia, my favorite font, whereas the Nook went with Caecilia as the default font, the same awful one as on the Kindle. So, then, I think I'll return my Nook Touch (if it ever arrives--it shipped to a warehouse 6 days ago, where it's waiting for someone to pass it to the post office) and order a Kobo Touch from Borders. Who says I have to be a father to give myself a Father's Day present?
