I second that.

Other features I wouldn't want:

- LCD screen: I've tried reading on them, and after a while they get annoying. I prefer the look of eInk. Also, eInk allows for greater battery life, which is always a plus.

- Keyboard: Like many others I, too, do not feel the need to have a physical keyboard. It's just taking up space.

- Whiteness: As someone who owns a Nook WiFi (which is all white) I know how messy the back of the device can look after a while. In spite of my best efforts, the bottom half of the Nook is now smudged (since that's where I tend to hold the device) and makes me look like a dirty pig. Never again.
