Kindle Fire: gorilla glass, stereo sound, unlimited cloud storage, etc. Prime membership: free 2 day shipping, unlimited videos, thousands of books to borrow free, etc.
Nook Tablet is $224 if sign up for Barnes & Noble membership. 1 GB RAM Vs. 512 MB RAM of Kindle Fire, 16 GB content capacity plus 32 GB via microSD card vs. 8 GB capacity of Kindle Fire with no expansion slot. Reading 11.5 hours battery life and 9 hours of video playback time vs. 8 hours for reading and 7.5 hours of video playback on Kindle Fire (even that 7.5 hours will not hold trues in tests, video playback drains battery much more than reading). Fully laminated HD screen for reduced glare.
That battery life makes me extremely happy. I'd probably use it as a normal tablet (as opposed to an ebook reader), since reading from a screen is uncomfortable to me.
