Is the nook a game changing e-reader?
nook, the e-reader introduced by US book retailer Barnes & Noble this week in the US could be a game changer in the e-reader marketplace thanks to the lending ability it offers and the ability to pick up reading a book started on the nook on an iPhone or your Mac. While the lending feature has limits – only to one other person and only for 14 days – that the facility is out there is enough to put this feature in play for others.
In addition to offering access to books on the nook, Barnes & Noble is offering magazines and newspapers.
