price is an advantage, only if nook wasn't around. I played with nook today, it is way better than Fire. after looking at both devices (I bought fire, without using it) I'd say it is worth spending extra 50$ on nook. Amazon has other advantages (prime, videos, better and bigger ebook store than Barnes etc) - but the hardware itself, is definitely meh. In short, play with both devices before deciding.
