OfficeMax will add Barnes & Noble’s All-New Nook and Nook Color to its in-store and online e-reader lineup beginning Saturday, the companies said Wednesday. OfficeMax sells e-readers from Aluretec and Pandigital ranging from $129 to $179, according to the retailer’s website. The retailer didn’t respond to questions by deadline about plans for the existing product line following the addition of the Nook devices. The All-New Nook sells for $139 and the Nook Color for $249 at BN.com, and Nook devices are also sold at OfficeMax competitor Staples, HSN and Best Buy, among others. Even Kindle creator Amazon.com sells the Nook Color, although at a $20 premium above the $249 list price. OfficeMax competitor Office Depot, meanwhile, carries no e-readers, but the office supply chain carries tablet PCs from HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Toshiba, BlackBerry, Acer, ViewSonic and Velocity, according to its website.
