Like I said, the new Kindle looks cool, just not for me. The Nook has more of what I'm looking for. Perfect example, a lot of people consider pdf support a huge thing and that's cool. To me, pdf support means nothing. See? Just personal choice.
It's funny - just reading this has made me realise how completely I've banished SD card slots from my mind. When I started thinking about getting an eReader in the first place, I really thought not having an SD card was borderline show-stopper for me. Once I settled on the Kindle I honestly forgot all about it.

Now I'm thinking as I look at the Kindle Touch that I'm really pissed off that it doesn't have page turn buttons. I wonder if it's something else I'll forget after owning it.

Not saying the Nook is not superior to the Kindle because it has these features. It's very much an aside.
