You're a kindle fan that's all good
I'm a nook fan, that's all good

but don't purposely post mis information, act like your ereader is all high mighty about it and not expect to be called out.

that's all
First off, I have posted videos and links to objective reviews. I am not selling "Kindles." As I have already noted

I am also a former nook owner, as I have already stated. The noted lack of civility on your part has nothing to do with your fondness for the nook. It has to do with your hasty generalizations like this:

Or the very disdainful way you communicate

*sigh*...

Next time spellbanish do a little research before writing super long posts, that'll save you some time and point out features you clearly don't know about. It doesn't take all that long.
As far as this little addition:

Learn the features of the STR and then come back ok? The nook classic has nothing to do with this comparison.
Again, you fail on reading comprehension. Again, here is the thesis of what I wrote:

Note that my post was not about any specific device, nor was it about comparing the Nook Touch to the K3. It was about the B&N's lack of attention to detail in the features they provide, which indicates that they only tack on those features on their devices just to say they have them. Now, despite the title of this thread, the point of this thread was not to be a "nook owners vs kindle owners" thread. Instead, it was supposed to provide a fair comparison between the Nook Touch and the K3 so that buyers could make an informed decision, which is why I posted this in the "What Should I Buy" section, and not the General Discussions section. I was wrong about the search feature; you could have pointed that out without generalizing about kindle owners. What I resent is how you brought your whole bullshit "Nook owners vs kindle owners" squabble into this thread. I have no interest in such a petty discussion, and just to be noted, I have not posted in any other versus threads except for the sony vs nook touch thread, where I posted a video of a review comparing the nook and sony from the the-ebook-reader.com. Personally, I want there to be multiple successful ereaders, because more competition means lower prices and better features for all the readers. I think Sony makes the best readers(their problem is the store and the price, not the reader itself), and kobo has a decent basic reader, although they should probably lower the price a little more if they want to compete with B&N for marketshare. My problem, as I have repeatedly stated, is B&N's tendency to tack on features in a haphazard way just to say they have them, which I find to be a highly deceptive and unethical way to compete.
