B&N releases a firmware upgrade to the Nook, enables games and web browsing

Barnes & Noble's has released a new firmware upgrade (v1.3) to the Nook (over-the-air). They added a web-browser and some games (such as chess and Sudoku). The browser is still in beta (and apparently it works using the Wi-Fi only, not on the 3G network), but Engadget claim it's quite usable.
