While I don't like the partitioned memory it wouldn't really have much effect on me. I rarely have more than 20 to 40 books on board. When I get much above that I start removing some.
Personally I think this thing, overall, looks pretty good and I suspect it's a smart move on B&N's part. Especially important to me is that B&N stay in the business because even though they're not much competition to Amazon they're at least there. My guess is when Amazon truly has no more competition we'll see the Kindles get either more expensive or poorer quality or something. Every company does better with competition.
I watched Nathan's video review a couple of times today and I was kind of disappointed to see the dictionary greyed out again. What an incredibly dumb design decision! New Coke was smarter. Still, I may want to get one. I'll have to think about it a while.
