I might decide to own both. The Nook is a slick device, I like the touchscreen swipe and library support. But I've run into at least 6 books I wanted to buy that B&N and other Adobe retailers don't have, at any price. Not to mention that Amazon is still a bit cheaper here and there. That's annoying.
And the K3 has some nice features, particularly it's weight. The nook, in spite of a lot of pooh-poohing here, is heavier in hand, especially once you add a case. I read for 3-4 hours at a time - 16+ ounces makes my wrists sore. Luckily, there are easel cases and the Nook's touchswipe, but that doesn't work in all situations.
