What? The new nook has a 16-color e-ink screen. They don't even ship a frackin' web browser because they admit the experience is clunky.

- theBobMcCormick 16y agoActually the new Nook is not an e-ink display, it's a 1024x600 LCD, and it does come with a web browser. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2371521,00.asp http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2371521,00.asp http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/26/nook-color-first-hands-on/ http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/26/nook-color-first-hands-on...
- mattmaroon 16y agoBut other than both halves of his argument being incorrect, I can see why parent's comments get upvoted and mine down.
- theBobMcCormick 16y agoIt is rather sad that your legitimate and well thought out comment gets downvoted to oblivion, apparently because it expresses an unpopularly (on HN) non-Apple worshiping viewpoint. Meanwhile mikeklaas short, completely and wildly factually incorrect comment gets plenty of upvotes, apparently because it supports the HN popular view that anyone daring to compete with Apple must be incompetent? Apparently, at least where Apple is concerned, HN has it's own version of group-think now?
