re 1) Rooting things is fun and awesome and makes the nook so much better to me.

re 2) Paperwhite gets about 2 months at 30 min a day and general consensus on forums seems to be about 28 real world hours. It's confusing when companies say 1 month or 2 month battery life since that's reading only 30 min a day. My T1 is rated at 1 month battery life, but when I'm reading a lot that can mean 3 days. It's all about the number of page turns and time spent reading. This is why I go for readers rated at 2 months because usually that means about 28 hours like what the PW and Aura get. 14 hours is way too little for me. I'm a stickler for battery life because I hate having to worry so much about it. I don't want to settle for 14 hrs with the Nook Glowlight when I can easily get 28 hrs from the PW or Aura.

re 3) I like tactile things. I miss physical keyboards on phones.
