Prove the lie. As this is a case of proving a positive, go ahead and prove it.
From our vantage point, we lack the evidence to show what B&N's motives here were. The court, by denying the preliminary injunction goes far enough to say that it can't make such a snap judgement on B&N's motives. How are we, the bystanders supposed to be able to make such a snap judgement on less information than what the court had?
My problem with your posting hasn't been the 'straight talk', it's been the claims against B&N's behavior that don't have the logical reasoning behind them to back up your claims. It isn't any better than venting or insulting the company because they missed a date, and certainly isn't 'straight talk'. It is an opinion based upon a belief of what you see in their motives.
As B&N announced the nook, and set the launch date before the lawsuit happened, it's hard to say that B&N decided to 'lie' about being able to launch on Nov 30th. Perhaps they were expecting Spring Design to come to the negotiating table in good faith, or that the preliminary hearings would be earlier (or later).
