On a side note: the whole "it's just a Nook Color" thing just has to go (not referring to you, just the general commentary). Anyone who thinks Amazon is gonna release a device that merely matches the level of NC's hardware..well. Seriously. The world exists. Pay attention to it.

Well, you use a Kindle, right? So your Amazon experience is really much more than looking ffor the ups truck. Once you have a tablet, you will (Amazon hopes) try some games, order stuff while on the go, buy and listen to some music, maybe stream a video at the airport, etc. Virtually every time you use the tablet, there will be an opportunity to buy something from Amazon.and if you check your email, there will be some helpful reminders from Amazon of stuff you might like to buy. Oh, they will have ways of getting you to spend money...

Frankly, there is nothing wrong with Amazon putting out there a maybe slightly better version of the NC . So far, millions of peeople have in fact bought a NC . Imitation is the sincerest frm of flattery, and I believe Amason is going to flatter B&N .
