I wish Nook would stay in business; I love my nook so much to wish otherwise. But clearly B&N guys designed a Nook to satisfy "Investors & Analysts", not their customers.

If Barnes & Noble does indeed pull back from building tablets, it would be a 180-degree shift for a company that as late as last year was promoting the Nook as its future. "Had we not launched devices and spent the money we invested in the Nook, investors and analysts would have said, 'Barnes & Noble is crazy, and they’re going to go away'" William Lynch, the company’s chief executive, said in an interview last January.
