I've been in a few Whitcoulls stores in Auckland recently and was pleased to see that they all seem to have stepped up their Kobo marketing. They all had stands showing off the Kobo, along with a list of the 100 free books that come with the Kobo, and offers of a demo of the unit by asking a staff member.

Whitcoulls in the Albany Mega Centre even had a comparison table of the Kobo vs other e-readers, and they were also selling silicon gel covers (the first I've seen for sale in NZ, but unfortunately they only had bright red).

Well done Whitcoulls!
