The Nook Simple Touch is a more-than-worthy competitor to Amazon’s 2011 Kindle Touch and it's a good e-reader for those not wedded to Amazon or who want access to the wide ePub content available from public libraries and e-book sellers. Barnes & Noble claims the latest version of the Nook Simple Touch offers 25 percent faster page turns than any other E-Ink-based reader on the market and Barnes & Noble is pricing the Nook Simple Touch as aggressively as Amazon has its new Kindles: At $99, it's the same price as the Special Offers (that is, ad-supported) Wi-Fi version of the Kindle Touch and also it costs $40 less than the ad-free Kindle Touch.
