Dolls house for iPad from happyMedium on Vimeo.

Okay this is a cute little iPad app for kids but … check out what happens when she puts parents into their bedroom. Brilliant. Now kids will know that when they hear squeaky mattress sounds coming from mom and dad’s room … it’s because they’re jumping on the bed.

Of course. What else would it be? Right?

I’ve actually seen the Nook Color, which has been out for a while, but never the new touch-screen Nook monochrome. I’m sitting at a B&N right now and have had a chance to play with them (and see how my new novel looks on them: excellent) and I think I’ve met the Nook that would cause me to switch from the Kindle.

I’ve heard that the screens aren’t that responsive, but I didn’t find that to be true. They worked fine. The controls are awesomely intuitive, responsive, and well thought out. The screen refresh on the monochrome version is nice and fast.

I am exceedingly impressed. So much so that you might find my Kindle up for sale on eBay soon.
