While the color touch screen appears to be a solid plus for the nook, David Pogue writes that When not in use, the nook's touch screen goes dark. Arrow keys on either side of the device control page-turning. The touch screen can be turned into a keyboard for making annotations and taking notes, or a controller for the MP3 player. The Nook also has a 3.5-inch color touch screen that is used for highlighting text, adding bookmarks and navigating the internal library. It takes nearly three seconds to turn a page - three times longer than the Kindle - which is really disruptive if you’re in midsentence. David Pogue at the New York Times writes thatĮven though it’s exactly the same E Ink technology that the Kindle and Sony Readers use, the Nook’s screen is achingly slower than the Kindle’s. However, the display of the nook is less responsive than the Kindle's.
