i think this is the first time i've seen a later model with the same screen size released but with overall LARGER dimensions instead of having the same dimensions or smaller. it is also not waterproof.

But, what if the Nook dimensions were given in the order height x width x thickness, both the Aura H2O was width x height x thickness. That would change things wouldn't it?

Jon, you have effectively said that one of these devices is wider than it is tall.
