    Yes, by the time they have it in stock in January, it'll be just enough time for people to recieve their orders and then cry when Apple announces their Tablet with color display and color books, magazines, and comic books.

    @Noobs-R-Us: no one wants to read books on their over priced tablet. reading on a screen that's not like the nook or kindle for extended periods of time = absolute suck.

    @presto117: "no one wants to read books on their over priced tablet"

    Famous last words... why don't you come back here and try saying the same thing with a straight face this time next year when millions of people would have bought the new Tablet. You'd be laughed right out of Gizmodo.

    You sure do show a real lack of foresight.

    Yeah, our dear friends at that other blog smelled this one coming when Alex first dropped. Its announcement was flung together, perhaps not unlike its current patent applications, to beat the Nook's reveal. [www.engadget.com] #nookvsalex

    I don’t think this is the first flexible ebook reader – there have been a few prototypes, most notably the Readius. Maybe it’s the first color one though. Either way, it’s not like it really sounds like the flexibility is a feature – it’s just bendy because it’s so thin. Bend it too far and it sounds like it will break.

    @Shevonne A Polastre: Durability. It's not so much that you want to bend it but that if it does flex a bit, it won't crack. #bridgestoneflexibleebookreader

    So do you have to rotate the display every so many thousand GB or just stick a penny in a slot and if you can see the top of Lincoln's head then it is time for a new unit. Can I get this in a white wall ? #bridgestoneflexibleebookreader

    In reply to Barnes & Noble Compares Nook to Kindle 2: Biased But Fair
    If it's already as much as the Kindle 2, how much cheaper do you think the Nook Lite would be without the touchscreen and second LCD screen?

    That's something I might be interested in, as this does look pretty nice. I like the Kindle also, but this is pretty sleek... #nook
