<p>I am curious as to what people who finally got a Nook think of it. My husband ordered me one for Christmas but it doesn’t come until February, so of course, I am going back and forth on which reader. On the other threads, it didn’t sound like anyone had yet gotten their hands on a Nook at the time. So I am asking- does anyone own one and what do you think of it?</p>
<p>Are there no Nook owners out there?</p>
<p>Santa brought me a Kindle…so I can’t help!</p>
<p>I think I remember reading on another thread about Kindles that fireflyscout has a Nook. You could try searching.</p>
<p>I feel pretty silly as I had no idea what “nook” was when I opened this thread. I thought you were asking about my breakfast nook!</p>
<p>A lot of Christmas orders wil not be filled until later this month or next.</p>
<p>I don’t own one, but I test drove it at B&N. I found the user interface to be very awkward, and the response time very slow. I bought a Kindle, and think it’s great. Don’t miss the touch screen at all, and if I did want a touch screen, I would have gone with the Sony. Nook is not getting great reviews, unfortunately. Is there any way you can find one in a store that you can play with and see if you like it?</p>
<p>Thanks CBBBlinker- I just sent an email to Fireflyscout. I will try to get to the store this weekend and see if they have one. Last time I was there they didn’t but that was at Christmastime. I figure we can always cancel the order and go with the Kindle. Just want to be sure before I tell my husband that.</p>
<p>Onward, I sent a PM to you.</p>
<p>For the record, I love my Nook. There are some issues with “last page read” (which should be fixed with the next update this month) and I haven’t tried lending a book. </p>
<p>I also highly recommend downloading Calibre (free) to help manage your ebooks on your computer.</p>
<p>Just wanted to update - my Nook now has had two updates, and is working wonderfully. An excellent reason to choose Nook over Kindle is that, through Overdrive, you can read ebooks checked out from the Library (if they use Overdrive) on the Nook, but you can’t on the Kindle.</p>
