Barnes and Noble's just made version 1.5 of its Nook e-reader's
firmware available. What can Nook owners expect from this latest
upgrade? Well, the company says it boasts improved page refresh rates
about 50 percent faster than the previous version -- which is good
news as we found it to be slower than its competitors. The update --
which is available for both the 3G and WiFi versions -- is also Barnes
and Noble's largest to date for the readers, and includes other fixes
such as syncing across devices like the Nook's various apps
(finally!), customizable folders for your library, password protection
options, improved search functions and battery performance. That sure
does sound like a big update to us, so go get it if you're a Nook
user! Full press release is below.
