Things get better over time, as a general rule of thumb. In order to remain competitive, you have to... well, compete.

"End all be all" in terms of Barnes and Noble devices. I can see them releasing one last reader and if you want it or need to replace it- it's there. It would be great if they offered a lifetime warranty. Make them cheap and keep them in circulation.
I do disagree about quality of the devices. The nook HD was fantastic when released. It still is and can be had for about $55 new in box.
The Glowlight- looks like a fisher price toy- but the screen is sharp and can go very bright. Throw it in a black case and good to go.
As far as software- for needs- I want to read the book. I do not need any bells and whistles. As long as it displays the words I'm happy.
