I'm sorry to say that sounds rather absurd. Apple has no reason whatsoever to partner with Borders, any more than they had any reason to partner with Tower Records prior to launching the iTunes Music Store. And given Apple's fanaticism about locking down product data prior to launch, the possibility that some low-level Borders employee in market research who writes up a survey getting inside info about an Apple "reading device" is pretty much zilch.

If you plan to clutch at straws, I'm sure the Apple rumor mill will be happy to provide them to you for the next 8 years....
