Barnes and Noble to sell the Samsung E6 ebook reader this spring
Posted on March 9, 2010 | No Comments
The Nook is soon going to have a bit of competitino on its home playing field when the Samsung E6 reader hits shelves this coming spring. Although it probably doesn't have much to worry about. We spent sometime with the slider at CES and can't see any reason why most consumers would opt for the $399 reader instead of the hot Nook.

Barnes & Noble launches its own e-book store, and you can read ‘em on your iPhone or PC
Posted on July 20, 2009 | No Comments
Well look at that, Barnes & Noble is getting into the e-book game.

(A reader, created by Plastic Logic, is scheduled to go on sale early next year.) The store, which has “700,000 titles” on its servers, goes live alongside an iPhone (and iPod touch) and Mac/PC reader software. That is, as you fire up, I don't know, iPhoto or Notepad, you could be reading The Beckham Experiment.
