   nook for Android, finally

   Barnes and Noble had a special opportunity to be the very first bookstore backed ebook reader available on the Android platform. Instead they are dead last, beat by both Amazon and Borders.

   The special opportunity came in that their handheld reader, The Nook, runs the Android platform. So, presumably, very little modification would be required to port it to mobile phones as opposed to the specific hardware of the Nook.

   Oh well. 

   The Kindle app is great. And the Barnes and Noble owned eReader.com website app is terrible. So I’m not sure I have any reason to take a chance on it now.

   I guess competition is good though.
