The marketing around the Nook, Barnes & Noble’s Answer to the Kindle, has begun, even though the product won’t be sold (for $259) until November. Above, you’ll find a B&N video that demos the features of the new e-book reader. Gizmodo is already giving the Nook some nice reviews.

    BN doesn't have high school and college ebooks. Amazon has plenty of text books, college prep books in ebooks format.

    A search for “Schaum's outline” books returned no ebooks in bn.com

    BN has long way to catch up on content. Without content, no use of being best ereader.
