My local B&N as well. And then there are folk like me who avoid Amazon altogether. And between my local B&N and B&N.com, I spent more than $4,000 on books in 2008 and close to $1,000 in 2009 (with a bunch on order that have April to July pub dates). Add to that what I've spent on ebooks, and I could make a few mortgage payments
.
I have high hopes for the marriage of Fictionwise and B&N.
