Being that I skipped a few generations of e-readers, going from the Sony 600 to the STR, the primary motivating factor for me was the screen clarity. I initially intended to buy the 1st gen Nook after buying one for my dad for his birthday and finally having some extra funds on hand that I could use for something for me. That was when I discovered that the new Nook was just days from being released.

The reasons that I chose the STR over the now cheaper 1st gen Nook included the touch screen, the smaller size and lighter weight, and the improved battery life.
