I work for Nook as a Rails developer in Palo Alto. I'm not authorized to speak on behalf of the company, blah blah blah, but I just wanted to post a quick comment saying that this news should NOT be interpreted as Nook going out of business. In fact, we're actively hiring devs here in Palo Alto and also in New York: http://www.nook.com/careers/locations

I really wish I could provide details, but I'll just say that I would be extremely surprised if Nook wasn't around and doing well in five years. My coworkers and I really enjoy working here, and none of us worry about job security.
