All-New NOOK, The Simple Touch Reader

Today, Barnes & Noble announced The All-New NOOK, The Simple Touch Reader – an easy-to-use Wifi-only digital reader.

The All-New NOOK, The Simple Touch Reader runs Android 2.1 and features a 6-inch touchscreen, the most-advanced E Ink Pearl display yet with up to 80 percent less flashing, and a battery life of a whopping 2 months (with Wi-Fi off). It has 2GB of storage for up to 1,000 digital books, and sports a microSD card slot for even more storage. It's lighter and slimmer too. The All-New NOOK weighs in at only 7.48 ounces – that's 35 percent lighter than NOOK Wi-Fi 1st Edition and it's 15 percent thinner than the first model.

The All-New NOOK is available now for pre-order at www.nook.com and at Barnes & Noble stores for just $139, and will begin shipping on or about June 10. The All-New NOOK will also be available beginning next month at Best Buy, Walmart, Staples and Books-A-Million, along with NOOK Color. Read more
