No one is going to shell out that kind of cash in this kind of economy for an overpriced, software-crippled reader that they can't even see in the store first. If BB sells 1,000 units of this thing within 6 months of it going live (assuming that even happens), I'll be shocked.
If they ever manage to actually get it in the Best Buy pipeline I expect it will end up in stores as well. At least that is what Best Buy indicated to me. Initially release online and then moving to the stores as supply builds. Very similar to what Sony had with the 900.
