Whats better than a Kindle or Nook? Perhaps this...
This conceptual video is a corporate collaborative research project initiated by Bonnier R&D into the experience of reading magazines on handheld digital devices. It illustrates one possible vision for digital magazines in the near future, presented by our design partners at BERG.
The concept aims to capture the essence of magazine reading, which people have been enjoying for decades: an engaging and unique reading experience in which high-quality writing and stunning imagery build up immersive stories.
The concept uses the power of digital media to create a rich and meaningful experience, while maintaining the relaxed and curated features of printed magazines. It has been designed for a world in which interactivity, abundant information and unlimited options could be perceived as intrusive and overwhelming.

Exciting stuff.
I like that someone has taken something that we all know is coming or that is even out there with the Kindle or Nook and thought "how can we make it look great, functional and super badass".. reminds me of Kontain (what i always imagined blogging to feel like) or Apple (what the hell, they get me with every product) .. forward thinking is the best.

yep, the concept shows pretty well that reading on digital devices has not to be a lame experience like amazon kindle's oder other plain ebook readers (haven't held a kindle in hands so far, but it looks not that satisfying as it could).
i'd be interested in how you think about such a device in general? i've had several discussion with colleagues about pros/cons and in which cases you would use these, etc. – for me i can say, i'm a gadget man, so there's a slight danger to get too hyped about this stuff ;)

I bought the Nook for Camilla for a birthday gift. She is a pretty tolerable person but gets frustrated with the Nooks awful i.a and page lag.
