Barnes & Noble Officially Announces eBook Reader

On top of all the eBook reader crazes going on recently, Barnes and Noble decided to jump in on the fun by announcing the Nook. It’s got a 6-inch screen, 3G and WiFi capabilities, 2GB of storage, an SD card slot, and it will be running Android. Some downsides? For now the WiFi will only work on B&N WiFi networks and the 3G only works on AT&Ts network. Also, the in-store book browsing only streams books, but doesn’t download books (I’m sure people will find a way around that). The Nook will arrive in November at a cost of $260.
