Get an early look at the Nook

Brighthand.com previews the new Nook, which went on display at Barnes & Noble stores on Monday.

If you haven't already ordered one, though, don't expect to get your hands on one in time for the holidays. Brighthand reports that new orders won't ship until Jan. 15, though you can get a "holiday certificate" to stuff in a stocking if you want. But you can also test drive the e-reader yourself at some B&N stores.

The Nook costs $260. Click here to read the review.
