Kindle Pressure? Barnes & Noble Cuts Nook Price

It is hard to tell why anyone would want an e-reader that only works with WiFi, but Barnes & Noble (NYSE: BKS) believes that there is a market. The faltering bricks-and-mortar constrained firm says it will increase its e-reader choices by offering the NOOK WiFi for $149, and a lower priced  NOOK 3G for $199.

“People who love to read will find tremendous value with the new NOOK Wi-Fi, the most full-featured, low-cost eReading device on the market, and our bestselling NOOK 3G now at an even lower price,” said Tony Astarita, Vice President, Digital Products, Barnes & Noble.com
