Now I'm looking to replace the Vizio tablet, which is starting to wear out after years of faithful service. B&N have finally added the Play store, but still don't have a 4:3 device, or Kit Kat. They're not even in the running any more.
To be fair, a lot of Android tablets don't have Kit Kat yet but I get your point. I think the Nook tablet is still on Ice Cream Sandwich and I don't think there are any plans to update.
