Yeah, I was thinking in-store. The last Kobos I saw displayed at Best Buy (I believe) were the Kobo Touches, Glos and Minis. What I can't understand is, why doesn't Kobo's parent company, Rakuten, use their online U.S. retail division (formerly Buy.Com) to sell them? If you search for Kobos on Rakuten's site, you'll find the Kobo Touch (for example) selling for $199 by someone named "Action Packaged, Inc." Someone else is selling a Touch for $111 -- and that's pretty much the way it goes for all Kobo products advertised there. Weird.
