The nook is not the most handsome reader I suppose.. but for my money it is the most ergonomic. The wide bezel and hollow back makes it easy to hold and the buttons mean it can easily be used one handed. When I got my Nook ST this past december I looked at both the Kobo and the basic Kindle. It was awkward to use the Kobo one handed (for me), and while basic Kindle could be used one handed, its lack of a touch screen seemed to me like it could be a bit of a pain. I haven't looked back and am quite happy with the Nook.. though occasionally I wish I had gone for one with the light.
