LG to Introduce eReader; nook In Stock at Barnes & Noble Stores 1 comment
The Emirates Business 24/7 (via E-Reader-info) quotes LG’s CEO of the Middle Eastern and African region, KW Kim as saying that LG plans to “launch a new product, maybe by April. It will compete with Apple and Amazon."
No additional details were given, except that the new ereader will be released in the Middle East and Africa. LG Display is making the metal-based flexible displays for the Skiff ereader and has also demonstrated a large format flexible screen prototype meant for reading periodicals and tabloids.

Barnes & Noble has caught up with the backorders and should have the nook available in most stores from the middle of this week. You can also order a nook online now without getting on a waiting list.

really wonder why Amazon has not gotten into a Partnership with a brick and mortar shop yet to sell the Kindle. As with every electronic device it is very important to experience the design and feel of ther device, just to see if it fits your hand is in my opinion a MUST for something that costs so much money. nobody would buy a TV online if you haven’t had a look at it somewhere else in a store, why does Amazon think that poeple are willing to do so with an E-Reader.
B&N will have a huge advantage from this, just the possibilities in terms of promotion and consumer shows are much better now that you have the thing in stores. It makes the whole E-Reader sector much more tangablie for people.
Now they just have to finetune the device itself ( see http://www.e-reader-reviews.com/barnes-noble-nook-reader-review/ ,the last user review at the bottom) and the success can get started!:-)
