hop over to the nook forum as that is still fresh and shiny and look at the comments that people are making there. think which of the ones are most pertinent to you and your reading public. make an outline grabbing those points so you end up with something like this;

weight
is it heavier/lighter than expected?
ergonomics
how does it feel in your hand?
are page turns easy/complicated to make?
aesthetics
is it pleasing to the eye?
would you rather be caught kissing your granny on the cheek in public than toting this about?
format
what can you put on it?
is it hackable?
ease of use
do you need to be a total geek to use it, or could you gift it to Great Aunt Edna and feel secure in knowing she will be fine with it?
support
is it put out by Bill and Ted's excellent adventure shop which will be rolling up its storefront tomorrow, or will there actually be folks at the end of the customer support line next year? (and folks that speak a language you can understand!)

this should get you started
