From what I read here, the Nook Touch's Android OS has already been rooted, which means that the capabilities listed by B&N are just a starting point.
I look forward to a Nook Touch that also runs Kindle's Android App, which would give me a single eInk device that I can use to read books purchased from B&N, Amazon, Borders, Sony, Google, and of course, Kobo.
The Kobo could have been in the running, but Sorry - no Android = No Sale.

They are both good ereaders. Yeah I guess if you want to root it go with the NOOK. But Kobo did not make a screw up. There arent many books that either Nook or Kobo have that the other doesnt. Each of the readers has something to offer the other doesnt. For instance the Kobo works better with pdf's.
I for one can care less about android and an app program. The device doesnt even have sound, so an app that requires sound without sound would be pretty lame. I have seen apps on rooted nook touchs and they dont work very well. Theres nothing that android will give you that will make your reading experience any better that Kobo wouldnt be able to update and make it the same.
I just want to read not play with apps on an ereader.
