I also had a chance to test drive a Nook today. As a user of a few readers, including the Kindle 1 and 2, I was impressed. It does have a bit of heft and appeared a little slugish when opening a title but overall I think it is decent competitor to the Kindle. I really liked the default font - it reminded of the Kindle 1 (once the font hack is available for the latest version of the Kindle 2 I'll be happy again).
Competition is good.
