when the tech industry gets over this tablet distraction they (and we) will
all be a lot better off…slimmer faster more power efficent and economically priced laptops is what we need.. and blackberry? How about reduce
that playbook from 7″ to 3.7-4″ and get back in
the smartphone game??

The nook is the only successful tablet out there.. great for consumers, great for hackers, great for b&n. It never tried to be an ipad, just a great little well- priced e-reader…with benefits.
