I own an original basic Nook, and I'm very satisfied. One of the cool things
for people that like messing with these things is that the Nook is running
Android, deep deep down, so I can install custom apps and WPA Supplicant
configs to get on my University Wifi. I can literally drop PDFs and EPUBs
(and probably a bunch of other formats I haven't had to use) onto the Nook
with no external applications and have them detected and available for
reading.

The Nook simple touch (the new basic one) is also very appealing. I've seen
it in stores, and it feels a lot more like a paperback.

On the other hand, the Nook Color has Angry Birds. I can't argue with that
:D
