Barnes and Noble Introduces New Samsung Galaxy Tab E Nook - Business Wire

Panzer was out in the Catosphere today when he heard cheering and clapping off in the distance. Following the noise, he found the source at the Business Wire site. There our busy kitty discovered Barnes and Noble has some news for Nook users.

According to the Business Wire post, Barnes and Noble and Samsung Electronic America introduced the Samsung Galaxy Tab E Nook. The new Nook tablet has a 9.6 inch screen. The larger screen is a sales point for customers who take advantage of Barnes and Nobles over 4 million ebooks for reading and movies and TV shows for entertainment.

Always read the fine print.

Current Nook (and Kindle) owners are being offered a trade in option when they buy the new Nook. There are several restrictions on the trade in offer. For example, it only applies to certain Nook (and Kindle) models and it only applies to in-store purchases.

Panzer says, "Always make sure you check all the rules and regulations before you buy anything."

Note: This is a very l-o-n-g post. Bring two thermoses of tea and a muffin.

Samsun Galaxy Tab 4 Nook (Part 2)

Do I want one or not?

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere today looking for interesting news to tell you about.

My big bad black kitty boy told you earlier this week about the new large screen Nook. Well, today he found a post by Clare Swanson at the Publishers' Weekly site about the reviews of the new Galaxy Tab 4 Nook. In her post, Ms. Swanson has a roundup of the reviews by CNet, ZDNet, Tech Radar and Good EReader.

The general consensus seems to be that the new Galaxy is basically no different than the Android tablet. The only two differences are the $200 worth of Barnes and Noble content available with the new Galaxy and the customer support available at their bookstores.

Panzer says, "There is a link to each of the review sites included, so you can make up your own mind if it's worth the $300 price tag."

Large-Screen Nook Makes Its Debut

I want to see it.

Panzer was out in the Catosphere and made a stop at GalleyCAT. He found some news for all you Nook lovers.

Back in August my big bad news-gathering kitty told you about the agreement between Barnes & Noble and Samsung. The two companies agreed to a joint venture on a new tablet.

According to a post by Maryann Yin over at GalleyCAT, the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook has arrived. It has a 10.1 inch HD display, so no more squinting at the screen. Best of all, it's available in stores and online now.

Panzer says, "Finally. It was taking so long I thought they changed their minds."

Let's take a look at this new Tablet.

Today, WE visited GalleyCAT. Panzer found a post by Dianna Dilworth about the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook.

My bad boy told you this new co-branded Nook was in the works back in June, so it's no surprise it's here. The surprise is the price: only $179 and you get $200 worth of ebooks and TV shows to go with it. You can order it online or in the Barnes and Noble stores.

Panzer says, "I want to try out this new tablet. How about you?"

Barnes & Noble Teams With Samsung on Co-Branded Tablets - GalleyCat

Finally. An answer.

Panzer was over at GalleyCAT today. While there my clever boy found a post by Dianna Dilworth about Barnes and Noble.

If you remember, in March Panzer told you about Barnes and Noble's cuts in their Nook investment. This came after their cuts to the Nook design division. My bad cat boy was totally confused about what was going on with Barnes and Noble.

Well ... Dilworth's post may explain all those cuts.

It turns out, Barnes and Noble has signed an agreement with Samsung to have the new Samsung Galaxy 4 Nook Tablets available in August.

That's right. It's a new co-branded tablet. It will be a Samsung device with Barnes and Noble ereader software.

Panzer says, "But ... what happens to my old Nook?"
