Nook Simple Touch seeing price drop to $99, touts ‘no annoying ads’

Who says a friendly jab is unwarranted? A leaked Barnes & Noble’s slide that slipped into our hands has confirmed that the touch-enabled Nook (now formally know as the Nook Simple Touch) will fall from $ 139 to $ 99 as early as November 16th, bringing with it a v1.1 software update that’s largely unheralded for now. In the paperwork, B&N claims that this guy offers “25 percent faster page turns than any other e-reader, a two-month battery life built-in WiFi, and no annoying ads.” Man, Amazon. Are you really going to sit back and take that?
