And with the iPad's release there's a mad scramble for everyone else to compete lol...I just downloaded a new Nook software update. It now has games, a read for free in-store option (for an hour per book, but still) and get this, a beta web browser.

I'm really starting to wish the Nook came with an attached stylus like a Nintendo DS, it would make typing a hell of a lot easier. The touch-keypad is ok but it's slow and the buttons are small. I've resorted to actually using my spare DS stylus whenever I need to use said keypad. Just haven't figured out a good way to attach it to the side of the Nook for transporting. XD It's not a major issue since I rarely use it anyways but if they ever add a word processor-type program I'd love to be able to use it.

I've still been having the freezing issue I mentioned before but I'm hopeful that this update may have patched whatever was causing the problem. I won't be downloading any new books for awhile (I have plenty ) but I'll check around to see if anyone reports the issue being fixed.
