We understood Barnes &lifier Noble might have a brand new Nook Color to strike back at Amazon's Amazon Kindle Fire eventually, and based on a couple of un named sources, the refurbished e-readers and tablet is placed to produce on November 7.
Nate Hoffelder in the Digital Readers been told by three sources, together with a store along with a Barnes &lifier Noble worker, who confirmed the business's plans for any second-generation Nook Color.

The present Nook Color is really a 7-inch tablet that runs an altered version of Google's Android operating-system. The Nook Color's emphasis is on magazines and books, it includes an array of Barnes &lifier Noble-approved applications, a internet browser and built-in e-mail. Its primary disadvantages from the Amazon Kindle Fire are its $250 cost, its reduced single-core processor and it is insufficient built-in digital stores for music and video.
Some tips about what Hoffelder's retail source stated about its Nook Color plans:
"Today, throughout our meeting, i was speaking relating to this completely new NOOK department. Nook hasn't been considered a department, ever...within the center we required away the client service counter and built an enormous NOOK boutique...Our manager told us...November seventh you will see a significant announcement from the organization. he came to the conclusion saying it had been exciting occasions. Clearly something is originating.Inch
That "something" may well be more than simply an easy hardware refresh for Barnes &lifier Noble's 7-inch tablet. Past gossips have suggested in a $349 Barnes &lifier Noble tablet known as the "Acclaim," which will be a greater-listed tablet compared to existing Nook Color. But expect if Barnes &lifier Noble reduces its prices to maintain the $200 Amazon Kindle Fire.
Regardless, I'd postpone on purchasing a Nook Color for the following handful of days. A more recent model, and perhaps affordable prices, might be just nearby.
