The Barnes and Noble Nook 2 - A Simple Touch Reader Review

[AlexsTechReviewz]

@GoodEreader I was on eBay looking for this nook and I noticed that some people stole your picture.

[goodereader]

@AlexsTechReviewz Yeah we noticed that as well. We should have watermarked it :(

weird red flash at 20

[TechnoCougher]

gonna give my 1st Edition Nook to a friend and get one of these.

I was about to get a Sony Pocket Reader for the touch screen and pearl display, and just deal with no wifi. But the Nook Simple Touch Reader gives me all the features i want (including that extra portability over 1st Edition Nook).

Not interested in Kindle due to no ePub.

did anyone else notice the red flash at :20

[rookiegenius]

this doesnt impress me much. Kindle 3 works well for me atm.And the thing I care the most is the screen contrast, the New Nook has the same contrast with K3 so yeah. But I do like the Touch screen tho. pretty sure the next Kindle will have touch screen too.

[NewYorkCityTimes]

Kindle is over, sorry folks, it's time to switch.

WARNING : Do not hook this up to your computer it down loud programs that crash your compter. Barnes & Noble has programs that lock onto your computer to get informatiion about you. This is under investigation. Share holder are selling

[macrimmon]

@TheGrandCapt Not had any instances of any "down loud" hooking this up to a computer. No downloads either. Windows recognizes it as removable storage, no drivers or "down louds" needed. And as to BN getting info about you....really? You have a Youtube account (and most likely a Facebook account) and you are worried about someone stealing your info? You just gave it all away, bro. Investigation? Google "barnes and noble investigation". Nothing about any privacy scams.

Is this lighter/thinner/faster than a kindle 3?

[macrimmon]

@patriotrower Yes, all three. And even tho it looks smaller, the screen is the same size as Kindle3 /nook 1st Ed. and most of the other eInk readers out there.

[patriotrower]

@macrimmon Meh, already have kindle 3, don't want to spend another $120 for something that's basically the same.

[macrimmon]

@patriotrower If you have an eReader already, its not worthwhile to replace it IMO. Especially if you have one supported by a different ecosystem. Whenever you can freely access books purchased from other ebook stores on any device, the ereader market will really explode.

Getting one for my birthday... Can't wait!!

[EdouardDubois]

By god, what did you film this with? A 4-year old cellphone cam?

[rocs2hrd4u]

@EdouardDubois 4 year old cell phone cameras are nicer than this
