I'm outside of the US, and although I can't enjoy most of the best features of the nook I chose it primarily for it's look, the overall look, you know, it's white pearl body, it's beautiful LCD screen and armony as aa whole, the qwerty keyboard of the kindle is still kinda ugly and unnecesary imo, also the OS of the nook hooked me, it will be my first Android device
I also love the lightest kind of DRM the nook has, Amazon is getting everyday more restrictive.
then again the attitude of that vendor was out of the line, he should walk away, maybe you were so harsh with the nook and he took it personally
