Nook Color likely dropping this week, image leaked
Barnes & Noble's NYC event this week will coincide nicely with the release of a Nook software update that focuses on synch and performance enhancements, like a faster page turn. But the Nook 2, long referred to as Project Encore, looks to be bringing more to the table than a couple of new bullet points and tweaks. The image below turned up in the accessory...

I loves me some Nook news, and there will be plenty to go around this holiday season. After announcing the November release of Nook software version 1.5, which primarily addresses performance and cross-platform synching, B&N sent out invitations to a "very special event" that will take place next week in their Time Square shop, NYC. No invite in my mailbox, but... Read more » Nook software update coming in November
For those who missed it, I love my $149 Nook Wi-Fi. And I love my Nook for Android application. The two of them have renewed my passion for spare time pleasure reading, mostly because discovering and buying new books is a snap with either. There is one feature that could save me a bit more time when working my way through a book on multiple devices, and that's... Read more » Win a Nook for your favorite teacher

With all the hype surrounding the Kindle DX and the rest of the Kindle line, for that matter, one might think Amazon and Apple had the e-book market cornered and trembling. But there still are other viable options out there. I've tried Borders' Kobo with it's sloppy little d-pad, and a couple of Sony's older clunkers (though I have yet to hold their more promising...

Competing with the iPad means big price slashesfor OEMs of ebook readers. When the Android-based Nook launched, its greatest barrier to success was Amazon's Kindle, but now, Apple's shadow looms large across the ebook landscape. That's good news for us, because the original 3G Nook has dropped from $259 to $199 and a new 3G-only version will only set you back $150.... Read more » Barnes & Noble Nook

EDIT: An Android client will be released eventually, but not before the launch of Nook. I missed the blurb in one of the press documents. This is exciting to me.
