We can, but still each of us must choose which one we are going to buy.
I only said that on a value basis it was about even. The Nook is about $50 more than the Fire but it also offers about $50 more in hardware value.

If the hardware value isn't important, then the Fire is the one to go with.
If you need the hardware (more storage, SD slot) then the Nook is the one.

That is just on the basis of the machine itself.

After that you are choosing the company and its services and it is Barnes & Noble versus Amazon. I would pick Amazon myself. Other people like Barnes & Noble.

I hope both succeed because competition brings out better products.
