Barnes & Noble this week began shipping its new Nookcolor
eBook reader ahead of schedule for all those users who pre-ordered the device.
The color touchscreen reader will begin arriving today. Barnes & Noble
stores will also be getting readers for customer demos and “very limited
quantities” for purchase.
The reader, which was announced at an event on Octover 26th,
features a seven-inch color touchscreen. According to the company, the Nookcolor
“has quickly become the bestselling product at Barnes & Noble with
pre-order volume significantly beyond that of the company’s aggressive
expectations.”
The device runs $249. Its predecessors, the Nook 3G and
Wi-Fi, will be getting firmware upgrades next week.
