Hi freeus. I've been in agreement with you and X, and also have posted before (repeatedly, it seems) how it is much more enjoyable to go to a real B&N store. An internet site just dispensing books is boring in comparison, although an internet site does offer book reviews on-demand (which the B&N website provides!) I think that the folks at B&N are smart enough to figure out that the internet kiosk concept inside a bricks-and-mortar B&N superstore may be a concept whose time as come.

I love the idea mentioned today by X the Unknown of streaming RealVideo of hands-on demonstrations, signings, (use the imagination) etc by book authors, etc taking place live inside a B&N superstore would be a winning idea.

As soon as I can get out of these miserable July puts, I will be looking for the next spot to short from, maybe after earnings come out and remaining hype gets flushed. Or maybe I'll just buy BKS stock, or a little of both.
