Barnes And Noble's Original Nook Wireless Ebook Reader Takes On Amazon.Com's Electronic Books Reader
The recent Nook wireless book reader being sold by Barnes and Noble, the worlds largest high street book stall with over 1,300 branches, seems set to lock horns with the worlds best selling portable electronic book reader, the Amazon kindle.
Though not long released, the Nook electronic book readers are looking to unsettle Amazon's feathers even more by taking it on directly in a sector of the marketplace, that up to yet, the Kindle has dominated. Since it's launch, firstly as the Amazon kindle then later in February 2009 as the Kindle , it has re-ignited the electronic book reader market by offering a mix up of innovative technology, through it's instant connect anyplace wireless networking and also the leading collection of titles available for download at terrific, cheaper than the high street, price point.
No doubt after going through ebook reader reviews, customers brought in to the concept in a big way and it is just recently that the rest of the business have woken up to the reality that this is the future of book purchasing. An so in the most recent couple of months we have had the announcement from Sony of their intention to enroll in the fun, with their soon to be launched Daily Edition, and the latest press release from Barnes and Noble that their own competitor, the Nook, will return to full production very soon.
There are no uncertainties that the Kindle2 is the model everyone is going for. And to be frank it's pleasant to see a little competition in this sector. Yes we have had the iRex iLiad but the ebook readers reviews disliked it because it was some what on the large side to be a wireless ebook reader, just right for office use with the 1:1 A4 facsimile, but much like the Amazon dx - another wireless ebook reader - not something you would want to take on holiday, or put in your handbag or pocket for that matter, and it was on no account going to compete on price was it?
Subsequently now we have 2 big companies willing to go head to head, with the might of Amazon kindle, on all fronts. Sony of late increased the size of their collection at the Sony-Store and discounted the prices of their digitally delivered titles to go with that of Amazons and hopefully Barnes and Noble, who have always been in the same ballpark price point wise, will equal them title for title as well.
But the biggest news broadcast for consumers has to be the shift away from proprietary file formats used by Sony in the initial days and nevertheless used by the Kindle now. To explain the position I will use Kindle as an example, remember this is even now the situation with the Kindle so it makes it clearer.
