On Monday Barnes & Noble announced their newest device the Nook Tablet a direct competitor for the Amazon Kindle Fire.
The tablet features a 1GHz dual-core processor, 16GB of internal storage (upgradeable to 32GB) and a 7-inch display with support for 1024 x 600 pixels of resolution which we’ve now come to learn will support HD streaming movies via the tablets pre-installed Netflix application.
The announcement was made Barnes & Noble CEO William Lynch revealed:
“We’ve chosen to be much more open and partner with the world’s most popular services like Netflix and Pandora and we’ll make these applications work better than anywhere else and let the consumer choose.”
Among other video and music streaming partners for the device are Hulu, Pandora, Rhapsody and MOG.
At a time when Netflix has suffered the loss of 800,000 subscribers due to 60% pricing increases the movie couldn’t come at a better time for the movie and TV streaming company.
Would you be willing to give Netflix for Nook a try?
