Is this the new Nook Color?

CNET report about a link in the Barnes and Noble website for an accessory for the Nook Color that shows what the Nook Color will probably look like

The product is a protective sheet for the Nook Color screen. I have copied the product description below in case the link is taken down:

"About This Item - Nook Color Clear Screen Film Kit
Description
To protect your NOOKcolor's screen against scratches, dust, and dirt, we recommend this Clear Screen Film Kit. The film is easy to apply and remove, and it leaves no residue on LCD screens. The kit contains 2 pieces of clear film and a microfiber cloth with an imprinted logo. It's important to note that while the clear film does not cause the screen to pixilate, it is not effective in reducing or preventing glare.
Kit contains 2 pieces of clear protective film and a microfiber cloth
Suitable for NOOKcolor only
Instructions included
Clear film does not prevent glare
Designed for Barnes & Noble
Imported
Product Details
ISBN: 1616813806
ISBN-13: 9781616813802
Manufacturer: Barnes & Noble"

Notice how it indicates it does not leave residue on LCD screens and that it does not prevent glare. Looks like the Nook Color will have an LCD display.

Update: (8:25pm ET) The Barnes and Noble link is down already

yeah these are teaser leaks, it's old but very effective marketing trick, helps build up interest. Apple is King of this type of marketing.
