Yep.

I got the $100 credit for an old junky tablet. It still worked, but that was about it.

How many tablets are you allowed to trade-in for the $50 GC promo?

It cleared the FCC on B&N's account. We're going to see it sooner or later.

If it's like other similar promo's BB has done in the past Nook tablets don't count. They don't consider them tablets, but a form of eReader.

Does this include the Sammie Nooks? These are just Samsungs with a BN shell.

Edit: It's probably a "mileage may vary" situation. If they can find a generic tablet to click, you may get the full amount. I got the full promotion ($50 card + $50 coupon) for turning in my SGT4N....entered in as a SGT4. Other stores / salespeople might choose otherwise. Now, back to playing with my new toy. (Oh! time to update the MobileRead stats.)

No, The Nook HD+ was a 4:3. I like that aspect ratio for reading in portrait.

I'm considering this.

What are the advantages (if any) of choosing the Nook branded Samasung, or simply the Samsung?

I am no longer ensconced in the Nook world, by the way, having given my various nooks to family members currently in jail, prison, or on distant planets.

You can trade in two tablets, but you'll only get one $50 discount in addition.

This is not true. The nook interface is different and is focused more on "reading first". Take a look at this CNET video which shows the software on the Galaxy Tab 4 Nook which is the same idea.
