Here’s an image from Engadget of the new Barnes and Noble E-reader.

It supposedly has a gray and white text display and a color multi-touch input display.  Nobody seems to have any details on the functionality.

Link to Wired article which has even more speculation.  Apparently this e-reader is built on the Android OS.
