Went to Best Buy yesterday - as well as Target, looking at e-reading displays. The Best Buy in Bolingbrook, IL (one of them, for all I know there might be five over there, LOL) didn't have Kindles at all, but the associate we talked to said they had just redone the store layout last week, and they had the Nook and Sony kiosks side by side at the very front of the store. No new Sony models though, just the 300 and 600's.
The Target in Dekalb, IL has switched out the demo unit from a K2 (2 weeks ago) to a K3, but you have to look in little tiny print for "this is a demo unit, the actual units are in the locked box below please see an associate." I also noticed the odd texture...but thought it might have been something they did to the demo unit to help it survive a bit better.
