For those who are wondering how well the Nook Color from Barnes & Noble will perform in sales charts this upcoming holiday season, you might be surprised to find out that the company is forcing their elves to work overtime, churning out around 18,000 Nook Colors each day. Basically, that translates to loading up a Boeing 747 every four to five days in order to bring devices to the US from China. This would mean there shouldn’t be a supply shortage this holiday season – although something like that is already highly unlikely in the first place since the Nook Color isn’t exactly the most sought after gizmo even though it sports color capability for an e-book reader.
