The original nook only reads books, the nook simple touch is as much of a dedicated reader as the Kindle is despite the non book features as a web browser (which the Kindle also has), the nook color originally was just a book reader. It was only after people started hacking it to add features that B&N added any, and even then it doesn't add much compared to what people do on their own.
