On the whole I thought the review was positive since there are no perfect ebook readers (they all have some kind of issue).
Daffy, I agree with both your points. I had thought about buying the nook, but now I'm more inclined to wait and see the new iRex 800 or even consider the Sony Touch or Daily Edition.
