Look Out Kindle – Barnes & Noble Reader is Coming Soon


The Barnes & Noble’s reader is getting closer to reality.  Their new product recently received approval from the FCC.  That’s a good indication that the B&N reader will have wireless capabilities.  Honestly, to truly complete with the Kindle, I think wireless is a given.  Sony has installed wireless service in their latest reader.  No details about the reader were leaked.  However, I would be shocked if this product wasn’t available for the holiday season.  I am going to go out on the limb and say we will see it by November 1.  I can’t wait to see what they have created.

I still go to B&N stores to browse books and then promptly buy them online from Amazon. What might set B&N apart would be if they had some special service to scan/browse through books while in a physical B&N store with their device… maybe. I just don’t think B&N has the infrastructure to compete with the Kindle. I still use my Sony Reader for all my books. The only thing holding me back from a Kindle (for now) is the lack of international support (unicode, books from amazon.co.jp and I’m sold).
