I'd almost be willing to bet our Walmart won't have a display, but hoping of course I'm wrong about that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Hubby had to go there today, he saw absolutely zero sign of any e-reader display. Of course, they might roll it out to some stores later than others.... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Two things I noted about the Clara HD sold on Walmart. Although I couldn’t get any page to load for the Clara (it took me to a general ebook landing page), the device is listed with a rating and several reviews. Is Walmart populating the rating and reviews from some other non-Walmart site? How can Walmart customers review a device they can’t yet buy?
Also, it says 2-day shipping, with free pickup in store. Nothing about store availability yet. I hope they actually have demo models in the stores, and aren’t just offering to drop ship the device to buyers. Maybe it’s just too early for it to be in the stores’ merchandise inventory system yet. And although there is no news yet on other readers yet either, indicating it’s a slow rollout and early yet, the only cases shown online for the Clara HD are 3rd party offerings. I hope they will sell actual Kobo cases as well. |

Ordering my Clara HD directly from Kobo and shipped to the US was no problem. Why wait for WalMart?

My experiences with Kobo weren't the most straight forward, compared to most internet companies. |

Fair enough. Still, I'd rather have a device shipped directly to me from the manufacturer, as opposed to something that's been through the WalMart supply chain.
