Welcome to a exclusive Good e-Reader Video Review! Today we take a look at the new Barnes and Noble Nook 2 – A Simple Touch Reader.
This is the brand new six inch touchscreen e-ink e-reader from book giant Barnes and Noble.
The Barnes and Noble Nook 2 is being billed as the simplest e-reader ever created! It features a full touchscreen 6 inch PEARL display with a resolution of 800×600 pixels and 16 levels of gray scale. The screen looks very good and is said to have 50% better contrast then the original Nook 3G and WFI. This new e-reader is blazing fast with the 800Mhz processor it has underneath the hood. It is running on the Google Android 2.1 OS, but no word yet if there are applications available to download or if Barnes and Noble will have an app store. It has a very a cool virtual keyboard that allows you to type notes, letters or emails. It has 2 GB of internal storage to hold your books and media content and you can further expand it via Micro SD up to 32 GB. The new unit has built in WIFI to access the internet and you can connect up free in any AT&T Hotspot or in any Barnes and Noble Store.
This new e-reader is slimmer and lighter then previous models and if you were a fan of the Nook WIFI or the Nook 3G you might love this new model.
