Nook Color Leaked By Barnes & Noble’s Own Site

We’ve already had some hints that Barnes & Noble would be unveiling a Nook Color eBook reader on its Tuesday event, and now it turns out that the company’s site has accidentally leaked details on it. The online store mentioned a screen protector film for the Nook Color and even showed a picture of the device itself. From the picture, the device looks like a tablet with a full touchscreen, probably an LED, ditching the split display between e-paper and mini-LCD on the existing Nooks. Rumored specifications include Android, a 7-inch display and possibly a $249 price tag. It was also rumored that Barnes & Noble would be releasing a child-oriented book app known as Nook Kids that will provide a good 12,000 children’s books from 15 publishers designed for the Nook Color, iPad, and other color touchscreen devices. With Tuesday just around the corner, we shouldn’t have to wait much longer in order to get hold of the full details.
