1. Bigger Challenge for Nook, Kindle As Google, Apple Steps In
Google and Apple have come up with what has created havoc for Barnes & Nobles as well
as Kindle. Kindle is on fire and most popular Nook, as eBook reader will be heading for a
nightmare. Recently Barnes and Nobles has cut short the price of each of their model. They
have reduced the prices of Nook Color, Nook Tablet with 8 GB storage as well that with the
16 GB storage as well. There is a $20s cut in the prices of the first two models and for the
16GB storage model the price cut has been around $50s that is just awesome and the
biggest model of Nook is now available for just $199 dollars, which was previously being sold
for around $249s. This is great news. However, it is a dilemma for Nook that the two giants
have entered the scene now and it is a bad news for all the Nook App Developer.
Barnes & Nobles does have their own App stores but you are not going to find as many apps
out here as you will find at the Google Play. You might feel that this a challenge for the Nook
app developers but still this price cut might turn out to be the biggest price cut this year.
Reports suggest that some of the oversized Kindle DX eReader has been sold for around
$110s and that is just amazing. This happened to clear off the inventory before the arrival of
larger kindle Tablets. Some of the Kindle eReaders have been in short supply these days
and there might be something lined for kindle as well. If such is the case then we might see
the drop in the cost of the Kindle as well soon and well below $199. This is thus an alarming
situation for Nook.
If you feel that Nook is in danger then you are right. However, you will find that like other
companies Nook to want to shed the hardware profit for the sake of its EBook market in
which it is at the top. There is undoubtedly, a great chance for the Nook app developers
either they are the New York nook app developer or from some other parts.
However, the biggest question is that is it right to buy the Nook even when Nexus 7 is
available at the same price or just a bit higher. Nexus is certainly much better as compared to
the Nook. However, still Nook is a good option of you is targeting the eBooks or magazines.
Undoubtedly, you are going to find that Nook still has some real good eBooks in their store
that is not available elsewhere. For Barnes and Nobles Nook Application Developers, the
biggest plus point is their Bookstore, that is much bigger than the Amazon and the Google.
That is why it still looks like that the B&N is certainly the best offer for you though technology
wise the Nexus 7 seems to be the best tablet right now and that is certainly a challenge for
the Nook App Developer. If you are interested in partnering with TBL Development Firm,
