Weight is also a big factor. If you're ever had the chance to hold and read on the Nook you'd quickly realize how heavy that ebook device is compared to the Astak Pocket Pro.
Actually, without the cover, the Pocket Pro is quite a bit lighter than even the latest 6" Kindle (6 oz vs. 10.2 oz). With the cover, they're about the same. Same can't be said for the Kindle with a cover compared with the Pocket Pro.
A quick weight comparison:
Amazon Kindle 2 (6") = 10.2 ounces
B&N Nook (WiFi) = 11.6 ounces
Astak Pocket Pro (5", no cover) = 6 ounces
