But to do that, DRM should be eliminated.
With something like the B&N nook, no kiosk is required. You can use the built-in networking to browse the catalog, "pull a book off the shelf and read it" in a virtual fashion, and if you like it, purchase and download it from the reader (probably while sitting the the cafe having coffee and pastries.).
