Hi all,
I just finished purchasing the Aluratek Libre from Fry's which had it for $139.99 (in black). That seemed like a pretty good price. I decided that the lack of B&N compatibility wasn't really that big of a deal. I'll pick it up at my local store this afternoon and should be reading on it tonight

I'll post a quick review of it in the next few days.
Thanks for all the help!
