On a Nook (or any dedicated eInk reader) you just load up your book and go read them for a week without thinking about charging, tweaking your battery options, wondering if you're going to whitescreen, etc. An ereader is a mass market delivery system that's supposed to be very easy to use.
The article has two rating tables: e-readers and tablets. But they completely misplaced the enTourages putting them together with e-readers only.
enTourages in a class of their own and, so, #1.
And yes, from a point of view of reading only, any 1st gen dedicated ereader is better.
