The stores is probably one strength it has over many ereaders. Sometimes people need to play with something before deciding to buy it.
IMO, it's one of the weaknesses of many products and stores these days - no way to try before you buy. Instead, people have to bring it home to decide they don't like it and THEN bring it back -- which is rather expensive for the company which can no longer sell the item as new.
