It's obviously a little early for a full assessment of this new device but we do know a few things. It's quite small and compact - much lighter than and iPad - and the UI is very handsome. Android users will be kind of miffed that the device doesn't support the Android App Store, however, because B&N wants a "curated experience." So much for the openness of Android. As a recent Nook convert, I'm excited for B&N if a little wary. At $249 the Nook Color is half the price of the iPad. However, don't expect this to act as a full tablet computer. It isn't. It's B&N's show and outside software isn't invited.Tuesday, October 26, 2010
