I think the new update has just put me over the edge. The winner is the nook. The most impressive new feature to me is the ability to go into a B&N store and just browse any ebook they have and read it as long as you want, I'm assuming this is true as it was mentioned in the video and the article.

Any last minute aye or nay?
The following is from the B&N Website regarding reading in store reading:

Quote:
The Read In Store experience allows you to browse the complete contents of many eBooks in our eBookstore for free while in Barnes & Noble stores. Connect to the fast and free store Wi-FiŽ, tap Shop and select an eBook. If the eBook is available for Read In Store, you'll see the Read In Store beta option on the touchscreen, just below the Buy button. You can read any eBook available through Read In Store for up to one hour. You can read as many eBooks that have the Read In Store option as you wish while in store on any given day.
As you can see it is not any book you want, just books that have this option. So if that is your main reason for getting the nook you may want to reconsider. I like my nook but I like my Irex 800 even more. If you can afford the extra money I would consider the 800. If not the nook is a good reader in my opinion.
