Nook vs. Kindle

Sure, IPad is selling well to the diehards but will it sell to the general public?  The crowds in my area are less frenzied compared to when IPhone first came out.  But the crowd size was still pretty big.  What struck me is that no-one really knew what they were going to use it for.  Now that I’ve played around with it some more, some observations – it’s heavier than Kindle (about three times heavier); it does not support Flash, a major drawback; no camera and no keyboard.  But it’s a fantastic EReader that shows how urgent it is for Amazon to come out with a color, updated version otherwise the Kindle may be spindled, as one commentator says.
