Dell To Sell PCs In Costco - Is The Axim X5 Next?

"PC giant Dell Computer has been expanding its sales by appearing on shopping channels and at kiosks in malls--and now it's going to the discount chains." Selling PCs online has been good for Dell but they are moving into other channels that have direct contact with consumers. In my opinion, the success of the Axim X5 depends on people being able to touch and feel the device.
If anyone has seen one of these kiosks, let us know. I'd be curious to see what they have in them and what they look like.
