B&N to release NOOK GlowLight 3
No worries. They are releasing the Nook Glowlight 3 this week! The source is Good e-Reader, so you know the info is good as pyrite.

If somehow I could take a Nook ST and get the screen and waterproofing of the Glowlight Plus, I'd snap it up in a heartbeat.

I wonder if this new Nook will run on Android, or some version of Linux. We'll find out soon.

Good luck to it. I still have a soft spot for Nooks even though I don't own a current one and buttons are good. |

B&N could have made the bezel's smaller and the screen larger without having to make the it any larger. |

Very reminiscent of the Simple Touch! Love those bezels and buttons! I'd be getting it if I hadn't moved on from B&N to Kobo years ago.
