Uh oh! There was a whole thread devoted to this. A lot of bogus info floating around.

The B&M world is hit-and-miss for all Readers (not counting B&N and Sony Style stores). Kindle can be found at Radio Shack and Best Buy, while the Sony can be found at Sears. Target illustrates how volatile the B&M market really is. They originally sold the Sony, kicked it for the Kindle, then kicked that for the iPad... and now are on to yet another e-Ink Reader (can't remember which, Nook?, though they kept the iPad too).

Anywho, the best way to get any e-Book Reader is still online. The B&M market is not a good way to judge availability of any Reader brand.

So, I go back to... MIA doesn't make sense.
