Recently the prices of the nook have been lowered. The price of the nook 3g has been lowered down to $199 from $249. The nook wifi has also been lowered from $199.00 to $149. The wifi version of the nook that has been lowered in price does not come with 3g. When barnes and noble released the nook they really underestimated the demand and did not release near enough units. We not only had this problem here in the United States it was a worldwide issue. It is a huge oversight by the company potentially costing them millions of would be revenue.
Not only did barnes and noble overlook the demand of their product they also sold pre-orders of the nook which a lot were not shipped. It really was not until two months after Christmas that they finally got caught up. Keep in mind this is about 14 months that they had been behind in production. One could only imagine how much money they lost considering at launch they really did not have much competition to speak of. With Barnes and Nobles slow production it allowed competitors like sony to squeeze in on their huge piece of the ereader world.
We all know of Barnes and Nobles ereader so I am not going to bore you with the minute details and provide a nice overview of the product for you. On the nook it has a great feature that allows you to popo the back of the nook off giving you access to the external memory slot where you can put your sd card. You can also change out your long lasting lithium ion battery if you need to without problem. This is a great feature of the nook because there are some readers out there that you have to send in or replace if you have issues with the battery not holding a charge.
Reading different formats is a very important trait of ereaders. Who wants to be limited to only one file format? That makes it to where you basically have only one place to purchase or get books. The nook is wonderful because it allows you to read the popular ePUB format that is used by Google books and also by local libraries.
Where the nook lacks a keyboard it more than makes up for it in its stylish,small, and sleek design. The size of the nook makes it a very portable device. It is so small you can throw it in a purse and not really notice it. The first generation of the nook has a 6inch display that is very effective when trying to read in the sun. Although there are new models out the original nook is now all the way down to $99 making it very attainable for people on a budget.
