I don't know how the Nook Touch can beat the Kindle 3 as an ereader.

I already mentioned that I like the Nook Touch, it was a big step forward comparing with the Nook classic (my 1st eink reader) but just because is touch screen does not make it a better device.

The dictionary, for example, is same or even slower than using a Kindle, and Nook Touch is touchscreen, should be faster. You need to tap twice on the Nook Touch. On the Kindle you just position the cursor and you get meaning immediately. A nice touchscreen implementation when talking about dictionary and words look-up is the iPad: you touch, you get the meaning just there.

The browser on the Kindle 3 is also better. Granted, is an eink device, what you can expect even from any other eink device, but its implementation is better.

I just sold or actually trying to sell my HTC HD2 cellphone because was looking for an Android phone with real/physical keyboard.
