The point is, its color range is majoritively orange. That's fine if you prefer orange lighting most of the time but not everyone does. For me, a stone white or amber is ideal.

I don't mind a light orange hue but I don't want to be locked into orange all of the time either.

As for the colour range? My Kobo ereaders vary greatly in their colour range and even comparing the same model, the colour range varies. I've noticed the same on other brands of ereader with colour varying illumination.
That's true, Nook GLP isn't the only e-reader with this problem. However, if you want to do an apples to apples comparison, the Kobo Forma has better color temperature controls than the Nook.

And gee, the Oasis screen looks tiny compared to the new Nook's screen.
Well obviously a 7" screen will look smaller next to a 7.8" with huge bezels. I think the Oasis strikes a good balance between size and portability. Anything larger would have to be relegated to home use only.
