The Fresh New Barnes & Noble Nook

This completely new gadget is undoubtedly competitively priced at $139 and it is certainly built to compete with the amazon kindle. It is lighter when compared to the Amazon kindle and appears to be simpler to use and will replace the existing Nook Wi-Fi and 3g units. It will sit together with the Nook Color Reader Tablet so as to bump the Kindle away from the topmost of the ereader review pile. The significant news bulletin stands out as the new infra-red touchscreen display screen. There is only one solitary control key on the face of the device and scroll control buttons on the sides. As an alternative to a physical key board much like the Amazon kindle there is a touchscreen display screen keyboard. In the particular demonstrations we have seen the display screen appears to remain extremely reactive and smooth and very good to watch. Individuals experienced with the touch screen and others new to the concept will soon grasp the poke and swipe user interface. The new Nook is lighter weight and more stream-lined than before and simpler to handle. The life of the battery has been cited at two months in between charges on account of the low power E-Ink display screen. We feel the brand new Nook is indeed a rival to the Kindle. Maybe not the Kindle slayer many of us are waiting for but well worth exploring. Have a look at our site eReader Review HQ to find out more.
