Barnes & Noble Nook to begin in-store display on December 7

It looks like those waiting to be able to visit a Barnes & Noble retail location to check out the Nook in real life are going to have to wait just a little bit longer. According to a recent Wall Street Journal report, the Nook will not be “available for sale or for demonstration purposes” until December 7. And on top of that, it looks like those display units will at least initially only be available at the “highest-volume stores.”

But on the positive side, those who placed a pre-order when the Nook first became available should be expecting to receive a delivery sooner than later. Additionally, anyone that placed their pre-order before November 20 are still being told to expect a pre-Christmas delivery.
