I am leaning towards a Nook, as well. I am just afraid that I will miss having the real book to actally hold in my hands. Also, I pass alot of my books on to other people...won't be able to that with the Nook, either. But, gosh, I have so many books that I cannot begin to even fit them in my bookcase...they are just everywhere in my house...so I think for that reason alone, some kind of e-reader would be a good thing for me.
