| Nook Color |
Barnes and Noble also says that they are not bringing access to the Android Marketplace, but are trying to get developers to design Nook specific applications, and hopes for them to be available for download in early 2011.
Although this seems like it might make a great Android tablet, two things set it back. Firstly, the shorter battery life compared to it's eInk predecessor. And secondly, Barnes and Noble seems to be trying to keep the Nook Color mainly a reading device.
Will the Nook Color be equivalent to the Samsung Galaxy Tab? I don't think so. Should you wait and see before buying a new tablet. Maybe.

Wow your website is great, I heard about it on leo laporte's show. I like that this website is also very moblie freindly, as I am posting from my droid incredible.
Have you heard about the ADAM tablet that is coming out around CES time next month? It is an Android tablet with a Pixel Qi screen that converts from LCD inside the house, to eink when you go outside. It has really good battery life too. It will come with Gingerbread, but will be updated to Honeycomb as soon as Google releases it. Cost is much more than a Nook, but it has lots of capabilities.
Check it out at http://www.notionink.com (make sure you click on "BLOG" from that web site. They have videos there.) BTW - I have no financial interest in the ADAM; I'm just a total fan.
