I tried the url, and it didn't work.

One thing I have heard is that the Nook Color 2 will have a micro SD card which will be an improvement over the "old" Kindle. So score 1 for the Nook.

Still if like someone said you get a free Prime subscription with the purchase of the new Amazon Color then that drops the supposed price of $250 to $171. That is a score for the Amazon Color. (I am already a Prime Member)

The old Nook Color had better screen resolution than the Kindle, but I expect the Amazon Color to improve there.

It is frustrating to keep hearing that these tablets will be out in September (for the Nook 2) and end of September or October for the Amazon Color and have no more details than we have.

Unless they mean that they are only going to provide specifications in that time frame and not a product, then that makes sense, except then why are they saying that both products are due out to sell for Christmas.

Actually I have been tempted to grab a HP touch pad for $99 but I have held off because I want a 7" machine.
