There isn't much price difference between kindle and nook. From what I've read so far
1. cost is almost the same
2. nook can play video, is touch screen, runs on android while kindle doesn't
3. kindle is faster than nook
4. kindle keyboard is ugly (I actually saw my colleague using it, it does look ugly, but it was previous gen kindle, may be the new one is better)
5. nook can expand upto 16 GB, kindle is fixed at 2 GB
6. kindle doesn't read epub, while nook does
7. Amazon seems to have more books than nook
may be it isn't worth spending too much time thinking about it (its not very expensive, like say iPad that one will regret picking the wrong hardware).
