Waterstone’s is Selling Off Sony Reader Touch Edition Demo Units

There’s a report over on MobileRead that Waterstone’s, an UK bookstore chain, is now selling off its Touch Edition display units on eBay. If this is true then it is a sign that something has happened to the Touch Edition. Stores do not sell of display units unless they know for sure that they will never sell the gadget again.
