The NIV Archaeological Study Bible was recently released for Kindle and nook. Both sellers now have this Bible available for $3.99. That’s a 92% savings! (the price is currently $19.99. My thanks to Dan for the update). The good thing about buying this Bible is that you can use it on most newer devices (PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, Android, BlackBerry), without having to have a Kindle or nook. You can download them here:

Hi Randy,
I enjoyed reading your posts. I have Logos and use it often and am about to be getting a Nook Color which I am very enthusiastic about. It seems the Logos people will be watching it as they are creating a platform for Android, although B&N has their own SDK, it remains to be seen if Logos will bite on that if they do, will B & N allow it?
That’s why I read with great interest about the Archaelogical study Bible for nook post and my question is, where are you getting your pricing info? The links to both Kindle and Nook have it at 19.99. Perhaps it was a special.
The prices just went back up. They started at $39.95. When I saw it for $3.95 I had to let everyone know. Thanks for letting me know it changed. As far as Logos on the nook color, I’m sure B&N will allow it if the system has the functionality needed. I think it would be a great way for a system to stand out from the crowd (and it’s becoming quite a crowd). I like the nook color, although it has a different purpose than the e-ink nook. In order to complete with other tablets and pads, B&N would be smart to gain companies like Logos, Bibleworks, Olivetree, Laridian, Quickverse, etc. If a company has plans for Android (and some of these do), I would be pursuing them if I were B&N.
