Looks like Thursday is the day. I dropped a note on the Powells web site, and got this response a couple of hours later...

Hi Richard,
Thanks so much for writing to us about Kobo!
We plan to begin selling the Kobo eReaders, both in our stores and on our website at Powells.com, on Thursday, November 8.
Cheers!
