A review of the Barnes & Noble nook eBook reader has been posted over at TheGadgeteer.com. 'The nook is slightly smaller than the Kindle as far as width and length measurements. It's obviously thicker though. In hand it feels comfortable but noticeably heavier than the Kindle. On my digital scale, the Kindle weighs in at 10.2 ounces and the nook weighs in at 12 ounces. The extra weight isn't a bad though though. I think it gives the device a more luxurious feel. The nook uses a micro USB cable for charging. Next to USB connector is an amber charging status LED and to the left of that is a 3.5mm earphone jack (there are no earphones included with the reader). On either side are the built in speakers.'
