Where can I find a Kindle in a store?
Does anyone know of an indie bookstore or small retailer that carries the Kindle or Kindle Fire?

Last fall Amazon launched a new program called Amazon Source. This program was supposed to enable small retailers to sell the Kindle hardware and get a cut of ebook sales.

Here's the fun part: Amazon says that they have several dozen retailers in the program, but aside from the first two stores, I can't find any retailers who have joined the program. And Amazon isn't naming names.

Sure, I know that Best Buy, Staples, and other chains have Kindle hardware, but I can't find any indie retailers (other than ones which started carrying the hardware before Amazon Source launched).

Does anyone know of a local retailer or bookseller who has Kindle hardware?

Thanks!
