The NOOK "Tablet" vs the NOOK "Color" I own now.

Replace my NOOK "Color" with the new NOOK "Tablet"?

Posted by Jerry Gropp Architect AIA, May 31, 2012 at 08:17 pm

My NOOK "Color" has served me well here and overseas. However I'm tempted to replace it with the just-releasd NOOK "Tablet" which is faster with more features. Hopefully I'll get some PatchReader Comments as a result of this PatchBlogPost that will guide me in deciding if and/or where to buy this appealing device. (I do confess to being a lifelong gadget freak).

I'll be a bit more direct than Jerry. The new site is a mess. Visually it's extremely cluttered.…Read More It's slow, very slow. There appear to be no RSS feeds, a major negative. Following a few links sometimes sends you to a different community's Patch site. And what happened with the editing staff. Unless I missed something, suddenly there are new editors without any warning. No matter what the circumstances, normally such a move would be accompanied by an announcement of some sort. Venice may be the greatest editor ever, but it looks like she is splitting her time among several Patch sites, so the odds are stacked against her. Her "latest activities" list even suggests that she is editing a Patch site down in the San Francisco Bay area. With all due respect, Patch sites should be hyper-local, and the best route to that is a local (i.e. Mercer Islander) editor.
