<p>Yep, it's a Nook. I like the interface better than Kindle. That was the decision-maker. Maybe it'll be a collectible some day.</p>

<p>Do you have a nook? I'm wondering if it's going to be like Betamax vs VHS, if it will really all shake out to just one. I'm not sure it will. Regardless, I don't have an ereader at all. All of my family members got actual books from me for Christmas this year, bought at an actual independent bookstore. Paid a little more than I would have at Amazon, but this store hosted my launch party last year and I owe them.</p>

<p>I'm not surprised that B&N is playing this card. B&N's lost tons of business to Amazon so the last thing they'll wanna do is sell Amazon's titles. LOL!</p>

<p>Makes perfect sense, although it's a shame we've reached this point in the slow devolution of the publishing ecosystem. And I'm not sure how it is that Amazon's going to avoid becoming a vertical monopoly, once they're the #1 publisher, retailer, distributor, etc., and there's no one left to offer any serious competition. I guess from their point of view there are worse problems one could have.</p>

<p>Yes, it's foolish. But then, I don't shop B&N. I shop Amazon. Much better service and selection.</p>
