Not sure why they reused an old device name, though. Bound to make for confusion.

I can understand reusing the name. They don't sell the old Glowlight Plus anymore and haven't for a while. I don't think there will be too much confusion. Some I guess. But not much. And the wildly different screen sizes ought to make it easy enough to sort out.

It has page buttons and not as bad a bezel at the NG3, if the photos are accurate.
And a $199. price.
The one thing I'm not sure if whether it has the warm (orange) lighting.
None of the press releases mention that, but you would think it would, especially at this price point.

Looking at the image, it does have the amber light. And the article says:

It has a front-lit display screen and color temperature system.

I really hope there's some improvement in Nook software (and it would be nice if the improvements were rolled out to the Glowlight 3 and 6" Glowlight Plus).
And no more games with the amount of space available for sideloading, please.
