I do feel the article is Kindle-biased, mostly only mentioning the smaller features that the Kindle has an advantage in. I own neither but there must be a good amount of smaller features that the nook touch has an advantage in, no?
However, that said, the article is very coherent and plainly sticks to the facts down the line. Certainly some people are interested in these features and the author wanted to present the facts about them. While it danced around being a shill comparison article advocating the Kindle, in the end I find it more a well thought out comparison that focuses on the smaller features that Kindle is better at.
Regarding the dictionary discussion in this thread, I must say that Sonys beats all the rest mentioned. You neither have to use a scroll button or your finger to choose a word to look up. I find my stylus invaluable since I use the dictionary all the time, as it is very accurate with the touch screen in selecting the word I want to look up, especially since I tend to read with the smallest font size (so that I have less page turns). It's funny that when I first got the Sony, I thought I'd hardly ever use the stylus while reading, but now I use it all the time for just this purpose.
