Thanks for your thoughts, JAcheson. I think that having both an eink and LCD device make a great combo. They are each suited to different types of reading. I have enjoyed reading on my NOOKcolor more than I anticipated. I am excited that my library recently added many books that have graphics like interior design, cooking, how-to manuals, travel, etc. These look brilliant on the NC whereas they would have been lackluster on my eink reader. I frankly wouldn't have bothered to check them out. I find that I also use the NC frequently at night since my family room doesn't get enough light suited for reading on my e-ink reader.
