where I can see and touch Kindle?

I live in Houston, a major metropolitan city. Is there a place where I can go and pick up and try out a Kindle reader?

If no, do you think Amazon will partner will borders/compusa/target/radio shack to allow this?

Not that amazon has publicized. Borders has a deal to show Sony's ready which can give you an idea of the screen, but as far as Kindle-specific I think your only chance right now is to find someone else with one and check it out.

I believe you can order one and play with it for one week. If you don't like it, just send it back. All you are going to loose in that case is postage costs, which will be a bit above the minimal because you will have to use recorded signed delivery.
