Eh. I admit I tried my Nook again, even though I intend to sell it. Just to see if I could see what y'all so like about it. Nope. I just can't get used it, not to mention enjoy it, if my life depended on it. The software is one thing, the slowness (it takes forever to open a book) another, but even the screen doesn't hold a candle to the Libra 2, for example. The light is nice-toned and even, but the contrast is about 100 times poorer.
And the thing is heavy.
I just can't see any Nooks in my future. Perhaps the Glowlight 4 is faster and its contrast better, but it's only 6'' which is unacceptable to me. And the software is still the same, plus it seems they have started to limit the storage for sideloaded books again (or did I get that wrong? Can you use the whole storage without rooting and installing alternate readers? With Calibre?)
