    BAD FOR YOUR EYES TO READ ON BACK LIT SCREEN
    this is why I want the new B&W nook instead of my backlit nook color.

    I want to read Under the Dome by Stephen King, but it seems too long at the moment...
    I WANT TO READ THAT BEFORE THEY TURN IT INTO A MOVIE ALSO

    NOT INTO THE KINDLE?

    If I got an ereader I'd get a Kindle.

    I played around with both the kindles and the Nook's.... I thought from a useability perspective, I preferred the Nook Color the most. My only concern when buying the Nook Color was the LCD screen instead of the e-ink screen. I figured it probably wasnt a big deal. I also wanted the color.... since owning it for several months now, I have learned that the color screen wasnt a big deal at all, but I really wish the screen was e-ink. I still prefer the Nook interface over the Kindle. Soooo... the new B&W nook is like perfect for me I think.

    Just so you guys know, the Borders ebook client sucks major ass. There's a reason that they're going out of business.

    Cost me $180.
    Zero problems with it thus far.
    Owned it since Christmas.

    it has an LCD screen which IMO isnt the best for reading. eink is where it is at I think

    THESE TYPES OF DEVICES ARE BAD FOR YOUR EYES IF YOU DO A LOT OF READING

    E-INK ON THE OTHER HAND IS BETTER FOR YOUR EYES THEN REAL BOOK PRINT

    Glitchy book interface, bookmarks rarely work, and it sometimes freezes.

    This is on my laptop. I honestly don't really know how this relates to ereaders cuz I've never even touched one.

    Weird. I would have thought it would be the same app on the computer verses the ereader. I havent had any of the problems you mentioned.

    I wish I did at my local one, but it was closed before I heard about it.

    I hit up like 3 different Borders that closed. Got my Christmas presents from there. Must have spent $800 on books, and that was the discounted books.
