Nook Simple Touch and Simple Touch with Glowlight now in U.K. retail stores

Our readers in the U.K. will be happy to hear that Barnes & Noble’s signature line of E-Ink eReader devices are now being sold via major retail stores. One of the most highly-anticipated e-readers today is the Nook Simple Touch GlowLight, which features a built-in backlit display that’s perfect for reading at night. It retails for £109 and John Lewis is among the first retailers in the U.K. to sell it.

On the other hand, the much simpler Nook Simple Touch is now being sold at a much cheaper price of £79. Other retailers include Argos, ASDA, Dixon’s Sainsbury’s, Waitrose, Blackwell’s and Foyles. Additionally, the newly announced Nook HD and Nook HD+ is now available for pre-order beginning today, with shipments expected to arrive sometime next month. Pricing is set at £159 and £229 for the Nook HD and Nook HD+, respectively.
