Hello folks!

I got a nook almost a month ago. I 'graduated' from first a Sansa e200 mp3 player with rockbox on it (5 books on that thing! I should be blind), then a Samsung YP-P2 (still my favorite PMP, I use it w/ a bluetooth stereo headset when riding my bike). I should also be blind from reading several books on the Samsung. Don't get me wrong, the YP-P2 (and P3) devices are great all around portable entertainment devices. Just not good for reading many pages of text.

The e-ink screen is much better on my eyes! I'm hoping to have a long term relationship with my nook and hope it keeps getting better with firmware updates.

I've read a lot of the pros and cons people have about the nook and I pretty much agree with most of them. One thing that I wish it had that I haven't seen anybody complain about is the ability to annotate bookmarks. It would make it so much easier to go back through to find my highlighted sections. If they could do that and then allow you to upload those annotated bookmarks (and highlighted sections) and read the book on your computer with them in place I would be even happier with my nook.
