Did anyone get the new Nook?

What do you think? I am still contemplating an Ereader and not sure I want to spend the extra money for the color.

Haven't seen the new Nook yet, but the color Nook (or any color eReader at this point) is back-lit, not eInk. Many people get eye strain or headaches from backlit screens.

I didn't get it but I tried it out briefly at the store. I liked it. It's a no frills e-reader meaning that literally all you can do on it is read. I think it has 2 games but that's about it. The only reason why I like my nook better (I have the original wi-fi & 3g nook) is because it has the 3g. The new nook isn't available in that option. Other than that I would trade it in for my current nook

I've never actually heard from one person that has used the Nook that they actually have had eye strain. I've only heard rumors.
