Battery life is increased dramatically as well because of the lesser power draining technology. The reading screen measure 6 inches diagonally, the same size as previous versions of the Kindle.

Tech Specs- The memory capacity of the Kindle 3 is at 3,500 books. It is smaller than the previous Kindle version, and much smaller and lighter than the Nook Color, at 8.5 ounces vs 15.8 ounces. Battery life is 30 days with the wireless turned off, considerably longer than the Nook Color's 8 hours with wireless turned off. Kindle 3 offers a wireless version as well as a 3G.

An Ebook Reader...and Only an Ebook Reader- Amazon's aim with the Kindle 3 was to create a device 100% dedicated to reading ebooks. They are banking on the fact that people have multiple devices in today's world, a lap top for every day work tasks, an ebook reader for reading digital novels, etc...

The Kindle 3 has a clear advantage with some of it's features like battery life, 3G capabilities, international service, and lower price. But the Nook Color will prove to be a formidable foe this holiday season and beyond as a hot new electronic device.

It basically comes down to personal preference, your budget, and what you want to use the device for when deciding who wins between the Nook Color vs Kindle 3.

My impressions:

Kindle 3 is really fast. The navigation menus, the opening of the various files and the turning of the pages happen in an instant. What is more, the keyboard response is very quick. The screen, which is the Pearl, the latest generation screen of E Ink, is much improved compared to the older version. The characters are clean and lively, giving the feeling of a real book made of paper and reading is very relaxing.

Overall the whole construction is of a very good quality. The buttons are well designed and responsive and the device's design is beautiful. It also gives you the choice to make changes in the font size, zoom, screen orientation and the distance between the lines, so as to optimize the device any way you want.

By far the most impressive feature of Kindle 3 is its battery. There is no electronic reader available with a better battery. It can last for up to a month.

The ebook reader stands out for other reasons as well. The free 3G wireless feature doesn't require any monthly payments or annual contracts. The dictionary allows you to quickly look up any word, you can bookmark and highlight a passage and the full QWERTY keyboard lets you write notes and look for words in the text. WiFi is also a very useful feature of the device. It's very nice to be able to have access to the internet and download or buy books anywhere you are.

Finally, I must say that I was very pleased with the capabilities of Kindle to play music both with headphones and external speakers. This may not be the reason why someone would buy an ebook reader, but any extras are appreciated.
