Yes, the Alex does seem to be more multifunctional than the nook, and may be a good choice for those wanting that flexibility.

The only issue right now is that it may never see the light of day. Spring Design has a prototype, but apparently not really anything else needed to launch the device.

Apparently they'd been seeking a content partnership with Barnes & Noble as well as assistance in manufacturing/production and distribution channels.

Not to mention they haven't applied for FCC clearance yet.

So...that whole thing about being on the market by the end of the year? No chance.
