B&N's Free $50 Gift card expired today so they followed up with... the expected price cut.
Nook is now $199.
And they intro'ed a WiFi-only Nook at $149.

The price war is on!
(And we didn't even have to wait 'til August.)

So now we have 6" WiFi Nook at $149, 6", no wireless Kobo at $149, 5" barebones Sony PRS-300 at $149 and the LCD-based Aluratech and Jetbook at $129 to $159 depending on retailer.

Obviously, to be continued...

I know I saw that this morning and I thought of this thread, too funny.

"you ask and you shall receive"

This is pretty huge. The wi fi only Nook is going to be like a Man among boys who have just the bare bones entry level features as opposed to a full feature minus 3G at the same price
