  • PB software
Minuses:
  • Capacitive, rather than IR, touchscreen
  • Less convenient button placement
  • Twice the price of the NST

I must admit I occasionally have trouble keeping the 612 & the 622 straight (neither is listed on the Wiki Matrix, so its easy to get them mixed up).

I am however still tending towards the NST.

As an after-thought I would point out that the newly-released 622 is slightly behind the NST, but that B&N is expected to be introducing a new eInk-based device very shortly. I think that counts as "lagging behind".
