Welcome
Your NOOK, the Barnes & Noble Reader, has many great
features designed to give you the best reading experience,
including:
• An electronic-ink reading screen that gives you a
sharp, clear reading experience like print on paper. This is
not a touchscreen.
• A color touchscreen that displays menus and icons,
book covers, and a keyboard as needed
• Wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi + 3G)
