in October 2009, and was released the next month. The original device was announced in the U.S. The Barnes & Noble Nook (styled nook or NOOK) is a brand of e-readers developed by American book retailer Barnes & Noble, based on the Android platform. This was the first time I purchased Nook books (had a gift card and I don't read paper books anymore) and while I'm disappointed I can't back them up to my computer, I plan on buying the GlowLight Plus if/when it reaches a certain price point.See also: Barnes & Noble Nook 1st Edition, Nook Simple Touch, Nook Color, Nook Tablet, and Nook HD He is not computer or technology savvy, but he took to it right away, something that surprised me. When libraries here closed down, I gave my dad my Simple Touch. I use mine almost exclusively with my library's eBook offerings. I've looked at Kindles and Kobos, and I'm sure they are nice devices and I'd adapt, but the Nooks fit my needs perfectly.

My Nooks are lightweight and don't get hot like a tablet and the softer finish feels good in my hands. I also like the physical devices themselves, especially the wider bezels which make them easier to hold. The warmer tones are very easy on my eyes.

For me, the light is one of its best features. I upgraded to the GlowLight 3 about two years ago for the built-in light. I purchased a Simple Touch eight years ago and it has gotten a lot of use and is still going strong. I can only speak for myself: I love my Nooks. I became curious as to how long it's been gone and if there's any history of the app being taken down and put up again. I figured B&N had phased out support for Windows 8.1 and went to download it on my Windows 10 laptop. The Windows 8.1 store shows the Nook app in my list of apps, but when I try to reinstall it I get a message that it's no longer available. Then I made the mistake of uninstalling it. I tried to download them a few different times in case B&N's servers were down for maintenance or whatever. It still loaded and I was able to browse the store, but I couldn't download any of my new book purchases to my PC. I had installed the app a while back on my Windows 8.1 machine. Yes, that is the app I was hoping to download. You're trying from here? What version of Windows are you running? Looks like it has to be 8.1 or newer.
