Wildlife metaphors aside, I think B&N clearly stole a march on amazon by introducing the NC. Amazon is scrambling to catch up. Competition is good.

Maybe a nimble zebra, heh. I don't think it's going to be about catch-up. That isn't Amazon's game. Seven inches may be all the two devices have in common. I wish the best for B&N (still one of my fave stores), but I'm afraid it's not gonna be competition so much as an outright massacre.

I wouldn't be surprised. Frankly they can give my demographic and behavior data to anyone they please. I have my tinfoil hat fitted and ready.
