Paperwhite on the high street (UK)?
Any idea when/if the Paperwhite will go on sale in Comet/Currys/etc? I'd like to see one in the flesh before buying.

Thanks

I read on a UK forum that 50+ Waterstones branches have them in ready to start selling today, posted by a Waterstones employee who had actually seen them.

I was in the Middlesbrough Waterstones today and they had a couple of test models so I presume they were selling them. They also had cases.

Might pop in to get a case. Same price as Amazon at £30.99?

Can anyone in central London confirm they have cases?

Got my cover yesterday from Canary Wharf. They won't have actual PWs until next week though.
