There are persistent rumours that Waterstones will be supporting the Nook (which, if so, would make the UK the only place outside the U.S. where the Nook is supported). Oddly these same rumours often refer to Waterstones as the biggest bookstore chain in the UK, but Wikipedia suggests the WHSmith chain is several times larger (Waterstones = 296 stores, WHSmith = 580 High Street plus another 400 in airports, etc.). I'm in Canada so can't really say, do you guys have any comment?
