3-Way Price War On Black Friday: iPad, Nook, and Kindle
destinyland writes "Black Friday has touched off a three-way price war between Apple, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble. Kobo readers dropped their price to just $99 to compete with the Nook, only to discover that Barnes and Noble was lowering the price on their touchscreen Nooks to $79, to compete with the new $79 Kindle from Amazon. And meanwhile, Apple has announced aggressive pricing on all Apple products for Black Friday, reportedly including $100 off on MacBook and iMac products, and a $61 discount on the iPad 2."
It wasn't missed, I was just spicing it up a bit :)
I have an iPad (1st gen bought in June 2010) and a nook color I bought new in November 2011. I prefer my nook. It is lighter and the screen size makes it easier to hold. I will replace my year old 17" MacBook pro with an Asus Eee pad transformer prime when it comes to retail.
For once I don't think Apple is keeping up with the future. Yes, tablets are where it is going but you can't replace democracy with communism and say it is a better choice because comrade Apple knows how to take care of you because you can't be trusted to take care of yourself.
