<<the Web site's new features also include a store locator, which gives door-to-door directions to the closest Barnes & Noble outlet, >>

This is a kind of 'franchise advantage' AMZN can never, never match. Find the books you want at good discount prices on the web and go over to a local B&N outlet. Buy the books without shipping and handling charges - and get them now instead of waiting for days.

I think the tide would soon turn in the book selling war. But even before that, AMZN would crash.
