I think now since that company is now in the USA via B&N they will keep the nook for they need an ebook presence in the USA to stay competitive with Amazon. Just my opinion
Nook has been a part of BN and thus in the USA from the first day it launched. Well as much as devices made in China can be anyway.

They might appear to be on a better track, but that's been the general cry from the BN camp for a long time now. It's continued to lose money for BN, I don't think it's actually ever turned a profit on its own.

I'd be surprised if Nook doesn't either get sold, or is just shut down. Though obviously being sold would be better for BN as they're recoup some money that way.
