Barnes and Noble released the 7.8-inch Nook Glowlight Plus last month in stores on Memorial Day, and then two days later they started taking orders online.
But the new Nook was only available online for like a day or two before it sold out, and it has remained unavailable for the past four weeks online.
Since then B&N has only been selling them in retail stores, and not all retail stores had any in stock.
Now, a full month later, the Nook Glowlight Plus is finally available to purchase online again.
It has a retail price of $199 with free shipping, plus B&N members get 10% off.
The new Nook has a 7.8-inch 300 ppi E Ink screen, making it the largest E Ink Nook yet. It also has a frontlight with color temperature adjustment. It comes with 8GB of storage space (6.4 usable) and it’s waterproof.

I ordered it but didn’t get 10% discount offered to Barnes & Noble members. Needless to say, I cancelled the order.
Make sure your card number is attached to your account if that doesn’t work, try visiting the store in person. I definitely did get 10% off.
I placed my order online to have it shipped to me. According to Google Maps, the Barnes & Noble store nearest to me is 140 miles away.

I got my 10% in store no problem. i even talked them into giving me the 20% for renewing my membership. I got my device like $70 off.
So far I am happy with my Nook. I still wish the bezel was thinner on top/bottom but otherwise I love it.
I like the orange glow even when reading during the day. They did a great job. I also have no issues side loading books ever since Calibre did the update.
When will the Nook Gliw light Plus be available again?
