Answers:
I just can't picture myself reading using an iPod. I just get a Sony ereader so I am not going to change to another device any time soon. They tend to last me for years. I still have my Dell Pocket PC that I get over 5 years ago to read my ebooks. The nook does look pretty cool. However, I don't know what's going to happen with it as Barnes and Noble has of late been sued over it.
Yes, the ebook readers are great. However, they should be separate device from iPod, because right in a minute they are great for reading but also limited to reading. There are no or little games on them, and music playing function is not as great as iPod. For me, I'll use iPod for entertainment, and ebook readers on reading books for personal growth.
And guess you know, there is a big player contained by the ebook reader market, the Amazon Kindle. I've looked into comparison between the Nook and the Kindle, so I'll tell more of my comments.
From the official page of B&N, here is how the Nook compares beside the Kindle:

Since Barnes and Noble page is only mentioning the advantage of the Nook over the Kindle, let me try to notify more about the benefit of the Kindle 2 over the Nook:
- There is no internet browser for the Nook. So even with Wi-Fi, you can only use it to purchase book. You cannot do probing in Google, Wikipedia, check email, etc., like what you can do with the Kindle.
- The Amazon Kindle have international free 3G wireless which covers over 100 countries. So even if you're in places like the UK or Australia, you can access the internet with the Kindle free of charge. The Nook have wireless only within the U.S., and is limited for use of buying books simply
- The Kindle is available outside the U.S. (it ships to 176 countries), while the Nook only ship within the U.S. at this moment.
- The Kindle has text-to-speech function, so it can treat an ebook resembling audio book. This function is not present on the Nook.
- Amazon is already doing some change after the Nook is announced (still more than one month for it to be available). They dropped the price of their International Kindle even further. And they are going to release a PC software which can read their Kindle books.
One more thing to be aware is that, at first quick look you may think the Nook can read ebooks with color touch screen. But indeed the color touch eyeshade is only a small screen beneath the greyscale eink screen, and seem it is only used to browse the cover of ebooks.
In my opinion, it is a tie between the Kindle and the Barnes and Noble. But if you may travel and you enjoy reading during your trip, you should progress for the Kindle for sure. Moreover, I trust the Kindle will come up with some strategies very soon, like on the way their lending book function. The Kindle is the biggest player in the ereader market right immediately, and I believe it will put enormous effort to hold its position.

I want the Amazon Kindle...
I've read this simple and concise review about it:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i…
For me, I'll go for the Amazon Kindle because internet access is so important. This is a review from a top reviewer and a book lover, see how she say:

Hope this helps.
I own the Kindle 2, however. If you ask me to choose again now, I'll still go for the Kindle instead of the Nook, because I think the network browsing function is rather important (the Nook does not have a net browser). The free internet (and now it is free international internet) plus the web browser allow me to look for information whenever I'm in entail. It is really a cool feature that cannot be missed. And right now it is free for both the U.S. and many other countries, it is a short time ago incredible when you bring it to trip.
I like to use the text-to-speech function on the Kindle too, meaning that I can "read" with my hand and eyes free...
I remember I read this review when I decided to get my Kindle:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?i…
I'll say enjoy both the iPod and the Kindle. They can fill up your days!
Hope it helps :)
cool, I'd buy it, but it's pretty expensive. It'd be good to use when you're within a long-ride bus or in the car.
