A 7-inch (18 cm) tablet with multitouch touchscreen input,[2] it is the first device in the Nook line to feature a full-color screen. The device is designed for viewing of books, newspapers, magazines, and children's picture books. A limited number of the children's books available for the Nook Color include interactive animations and the option to have a professional voice actor read the story. It was announced on 26 October 2010 and shipped on 16 November 2010.[3] Nook Color became available at the introductory price of US$249.
