Barnes & Noble

Barnes & Noble is the top retail bookseller in the U.S. It operates over 700 Barnes & Noble superstores, plus an additional 100 mall-based B. Dalton bookstores. Barnesandnoble.com, the online seller, accounts for about 10% of the company's total sales.

On July 20, 2009, the company announced plans to open an online bookstore which would sell e-books in hopes to compete with Amazon's similar business. The $9.99 books would be available for use on devices including the iPhone and the Plastic Logic e-reader, a competitor for the Amazon Kindle, which is expected to launch in 2010.http://www.reuters.com/article/internetNews/idUSTRE56J5AI20090720
