B&N’s Nook…

is the fastest selling item at B&N. Yo, Yanks: any of you have this or have seen it in action? What’s it like? Better than Kindle? I hear good things.

The Nook has become the fastest selling single item at Barnes & Noble since the retailer introduced the e-reader October 20, company CEO Steve Riggio said in Tuesday morning’s investor presentation. Last week, Amazon reported that the Kindle was its fastest selling product in both unit and dollar terms. Neither company has disclosed the number of devices that have been sold and/or ordered, but B&N.com president William Lynch told analysts the company expects to get a “big chunk” of the 900,000 e-readers that some analysts believe will be sold over the holidays. Riggio said B&N’s goal for the holidays is to make sure they have enough Nooks in stock to meet demand. B&N plans to start shipping Nooks November 30.

    Isn’t that a lot like me saying “I’ve written the greatest novel ever, but I haven’t published it yet, so you’ll have to take my word for it.”

    It kind of reminds me of the kid in school. The one who always craved the most attention but usually had the least to say/show.
