Barnes & Noble has said today that the Nook e-reader is sold out for 2009, and all orders placed past today will not ship until January 4th.
Those who wanted the e-reader for Christmas will be out of luck, but will receive a certificate "that promises a Nook reader when it ships."
B&N has said the delays are due to high demand, but it is equally as likely that the company is having production-related shortages.
The Nook is based on the Android platform and has removable storage, Wi-Fi, and a color touchscreen, all advantages over the market leader Amazon Kindle.
