Just from looks I would pick the Nook every time.  The big screen makes the difference. 

Now that being said I don’t know that I would ever use one of these.  I am looking forward to the full comparison review.

I think the bezel makes the screen sizes look different. The reading area on the Kindle and nook are exactly the same size. I wouldn’t be surprised if they used the exact same part for their screens, in fact

Ah I guess you are right I didn’t take a look at them close enough.  I am very interested to get a hands on with them.  I don’t know when I will have a chance. 

I am looking forward to hearing what you think of them.

P.S. I just shot you an email about the site.  It seems to be working fine right now. Might just have been a hiccup.

The Kindle looks incredibly ugly compared to the sleek sexy Nook. Barnes and Noble took e-reading to another level.

Bye bye Kindle

My impression is that the Kindle 2 has a much lower contrast screen than the Nook.  You had them side by side.  Did you not notice this?  Or am I crazy.  The type on the nook looks so crisp against that lighter screen while the Kindle has dull gray type against a medium gray background.  Tell me if I’m wrong.  I didn’t get a chance to compare them side by side.
