Let's face it, nobody was too upset by the opaqueness of the Nook's spec sheet—screens and software, not board-level componentry, are what make ereaders great. But with this teardown comes something glorious: the Nook's Android software has been hacked. More »Books, and the iTunes Problem
Ransacked by the internet and teetering on the edge of the real ebook revolution, the publishing world is understandably afraid of what's next.

The Nook Launch Is Gonna Be a Flustercuck
Barnes & Noble Ruins Nerd Christmas (For Good PR)
Nobody has any idea if the Nook is actually any good yet, but no matter: It's a well-placed holiday gift, in theory! Or at least it was, until Barnes & Noble ran out of them. More »Will eReaders Really Become Gaming Devices?
eReaders are getting powerful enough to become fully-fledged Internet tablets, but gaming devices? That's a new spin. Turns out Qualcomm has a detachable game controller add-on for that Snapdragon-powered eReader prototype we first showed you on Wednesday. Take a look: More »Qualcomm Ebook Display Ups the Ante with Full Color and Video
Qualcomm has developed a 5.7-inch (1,024x768) display for ebook readers that not only renders color and video; it does so with enough power efficiency to challenge a black and white, still-frame Kindle. More »Remainders - Stuff We Didn't Post (and Why)

Spring Design's Alex reader seemed very similar to Barnes & Noble's Nook. I thought that Spring Design was the copycat, but based on the lawsuit they filed for violation of intellectual property, it may be the other way around. More »Plastic Logic Que Is Going to Nuzzle Nook in Barnes & Noble Stores (And Why You Care)
I asked at the announcement if the Nook would get exclusive perks over other Barnes & Noble readers, like Plastic Logic's Que. Shelf space ain't one of them, since Que will cozy up with Nook in B&N stores next year. More »Barnes & Noble Nook Won't Be Sold in All B&N Stores, for Some Reason [Updated]
Barnes & Noble has a leg up on the Kindle, since they've got over 700 brick-and-mortar stores where they can sell the Nook. But BN will only be selling the Nook in certain stores, pushing delayed-gratification online sales instead. Updated. More »Don't Get too Excited About the Nook's Lending Feature
One of my favorite details about the Nook—the 14-day "lending"—just got a lot less enticing. Turns out there are very specific rules about this lending process, and they pretty much nullify the feature's promise. More »8 Reasons You Can Finally Love Ebook Readers (Thanks to Nook)
