The Nook isn't the problem no matter how you swing it. B&N MUST have the Nook. Whether as an inhouse device or spun off to its own division, the thing that will separate the majors from the wannabees is the availability of an edevice. This is what is going to affect the Kobo, it may be the only other device than the Kindle left available if B&N goes down.
What the drag for B&N is right now is that they have too many B&M locations in bad areas. They have to shrink or the economy has to pickup to make those viable. Until that happens, cash flow is too tight.
