I think your idea is great. We have a model coming out in February (EZ READER PLUS) that will have 3G and we can start now to approach Starbucks.
I will do this! Anybody who knows the Business Development VP for Starbucks... let me know please.
Great suggestion!!
IF this works, maybe we can get you an EZ Reader Plus as a reward or something. No promises; but do want to thank you properly!

Virtue is its own reward.

The loaner idea is a good one. I think it would be a great way to get readers into people's hands so they can see how great the e ink screen looks. And it seems to me that since Starbucks already has wireless in all their venues (I think), a Wifi-enabled reader should be able to access an online shop. If you let Starbucks co-brand a web shop and get a percentage of the proceeds, I think they should jump at the chance. It's a way for them to make some revenue off people who sit around in their store and read.
