Well, I moseyed on over to Best Buy to check out the KF. Considering it just as an EBR, I liked it more than the Nook. Main reason being that the hardware/screen ratio is better - the non-screen hardware just disappears on the KF but I'm quite aware of it on the Nook. YMMD.

The KF is nowhere near an iPad killer. It's not even a baby iPad, really. It lacks the finish and software slickness of the iPad.

But there's one thing I think the KF has certainly done, and that's kill off any chance whatsoever of a 7 inch e-ink EBR. The Sony 950 is the last one we'll see. I suppose that maybe Sony has a 975 in the works, but I certainly don't expect it.
