Detailed review
I just replaced my Nook WiFi with the newest Kindle and the Kindle just crushes the Nook across the board. I've read enough Nook reviews that some people like the ePub support and being able to read books at a B&N brick and mortar store. Those two features have no value for me. What I do value about the new Kindle is how light, bright and responsive it is. Plus, Amazon's Kindle store is easier to use and more complete. And as a long-time Audible customer, I love that I can listen to Audible audiobooks. True, the audiobook navigation isn't as good as on an iPhone, but it is on par with the classic, monochrome iPods which is good enough.

I agree that the ability to read books while in a book store is a pretty valueless feature. They make it seem like the books are in glass cases and you are elite enough to read pages of any book due to your nook.
