Barnes & Noble has announced another Nook tablet. This time it's the Nook E, and it's based on a little seen Samsung tablet released earlier this year. It's priced at $250 and available right now.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab E also comes in a 9.6-inch model, that comes in Wi-Fi only (additionally in a bookworm-friendly Nook edition), as well as a 4G LTE version (which Verizon carries).

For now, Samsung's limiting the release to Taiwan, where the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 sells for TWD 8,990 (around $270 in U.S. currency).
