It sounds to me like it's not the bookstores themselves that are scrambling, but the publishers and wholesalers, at least according to this quote from the BooksOnBoard article:

Quote:
EBooks from these publishers are not expected to be available on either of our stores starting April 1 until the publishers sort out the infrastructure to deploy this change. This could take several days or it may take weeks. BooksOnBoard is ready to deploy the changes once the publisher and wholesaler infrastructures are in place.
Splitting hairs, but regardless of who has what, it's still a lamentable mess.
