the nook site is live and the price is $259 - formats are:

* EPUB and eReader Formats
* PDFs load easily and look great.
* PDFs, MP3s and graphics load to your nook from your computer or micro SD card.
* Use JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP files to create personal screensavers.

no text, rich text or html

lots of covers to choose from including a couple that don't use leather.

i wonder if the color screen can be turned off. after all, those of us who read on an ebook reader partly because of eyestrain - particular caused by refresh - may not want a little refreshing screen that's on while we're reading.
