Perhaps B&N has found a major issue in Android or on the readers itself in testing the production models and doesn't want to put thousands of bricks out there, so it is figuring out a software patch.
But with each passing day as we approach Christmas, my decision is leaning toward SONY or Amazon. I realize that even if it was out today, there could still be issues with the nook, but I don't want to ask for B&N giftcards or money toward it and then be stuck with a $260 paperweight.

First off, if B&N is delaying the sending out the nook because they found software issues I commend them for doing so. I do not want a device with problems that is on time - I would rather wait for the fix, which if it is software then the delay should not be long...
As far as going for a Sony or Kindle, that is an option if they meet your needs. I find the nook a promising device and the basic feature set is what I have been looking for, so I can wait. Christmas means more than me getting an electronic device...
