Nook Goes on Sale in Barnes and Noble Stores on November 30th
Barnes and Noble's new electronic reading device called the Nook will be available in its bookstore on November 30th. Computerworld says shoppers can currently pick up pamphlets in Barnes and Noble stores that are cut to match Nook's size. Those curious about the Nook will be able to hold and feel the device in B&N stores and decide whether or not they think they would prefer it to Amazon.com's Kindle. This could give B&N an advantage. Apple has been able to use its stores to show customers a wide range of products. Some customers are more likely to purchase a device they can touch and feel. Barnes & Noble will need any advantage it can get. Many people already own a Kindle as Amazon.com began selling them long before the Nook launched. Amazon.com has also had time to perfect its device and respond to consumer complaints while the Nook will be on version 1.0. You can read more about the Nook here on bn.com.
